Ardbeg approaches a whole new level with an innovative cask charring process
which involves removing the cask heads and scoring them deeply to expose more wood during super-secret toasting process.
This multidimensional dram morphs between four key elements – sweet, smoky, herbal and spicy – all merging into one mesmerizing taste experience.
As a result of the unique maturing technique, Ardbeg Anamorphic boasts chocolaty sweetness and magnifies the mocha notes.
Nose: Earthy, dusty, and biscuity on the nose, this is a most curious Ardbeg,
almost from an alternative universe. The sooty/tarry notes are clear but
restrained, and balanced by silky vanilla.
Taste: Peppery and warming, preceding an explosion of fiery, spicy flavors: Chili
chocolate, bittersweet mocha, briar wood, birch tar, black pepper and smoked
artichokes. The tarry notes build to a crescendo of rich, smoky flavors, with an
incredible, lingering aftertaste of charcoal almonds and molasses.
