Ardbeg 10 Years TEN
Ardbeg TEN stands for a very intense, peated Whisky that you can enjoy regularly. Its taste is full and intense like the Isle of Islay itself. While tasting you always have this smoky note lingering over everything. A very nice non chill filtered whisky indeed.

All tasting notes
Taste: vegetables like burned beetroot, sour from chicken soup, smoke only on the beggining.
Finish: quite long and very smoky
Comment: This position is for those who like intense smokiness, vegetables and kind of "lunch - dinner" taste in whisky, who are looking for very complex whisky with no sweetness in.
It is not for those who don't prefer to much smoke, who prefer sweetness, who are looking for long nice finish. Not for me definitely. I can find the smokiness of Ardbeg in flue gas when I'm in the car with air con on - not the pleasant one.
Alcohol hidden perfectly.
Prices going up so it is good to buy on sales in supermarkets.

Finish:
medium long with chilli
Comment:
The color is very pale than expected even I heard it has so. It's totally different from what I had a impression at Ardbeg 10yo. It's not too much phenol / peaty whisky. it's very present, Well balanced one between peat, honey and orange. I can not feel such a strong alcohol level around 46%.
Even when adding water, the structure of this whisky flavor and palate doesn't corrupt.
