Whisky Review: Ardbeg 19-Year-Old Traigh Bhan Batch 4 landed on my desk at 46.2% ABV, carrying a $300 price tag. Here is what I found.
Nose
Aside from the sweaty stench I first got from the nose, I quite like layers of depth on the palate. The whiskey is smokey but not too overpowering to take away from the nuttiness and fruitiness. It feels balanced for being robust and is a great representation of Ardbeg.
