Ardbeg Corryvreckan - The untamed spirit of Islay - Islay single malt scotch whisky

Recebi do Ardbeg Committee, a brochura do "Ardbeg Corryvreckan - A tale that needs teasing".
Efectivamente, como já tinha referido anteriormente, ...são os melhores!
Notas de Prova (deliberadamente não traduzidas!)
Colour: Deepest amber,
Aroma: Heady, intense and powerful,
Swirl your glass and encounter the deep and turbulent force of Corryvreckan as it pulls you inwards with torrents of tarry ropes, creosote and linseed oil rising from the deep. As you succumb, a collision of waxy dark chocolate, warm blackcurrants and muscovado sugar with a burst of plump cherries leaps from the depths and pulls you under.
Now swirl water into the glass, and observe the magical collision of whisky and water. Sense gutsy cayenne-peppered steak and oysters smothered in hot Tabasco sauce. Salty seasoning brings a briny character with tangy crisp seaweed and smoky bacon swirling on the surface with hints of sweet vanilla, spicy cloves and blueberries. As the whirlpool quickens, surrender to its dangerous depths with the heady force of menthol, treacle and chilli sauce.
Taste: Torrents of taste well up on the palate; deep, peppery and chewy, bombarding the tongue with intense textures.
Finish: Long, deep and remaining powerful into the finish with black tarry coffee, chocolate coated cherries and hot pepper sauce; the lingering memories of your mysterious and daring journey into Corryvreckan.

Indescritível, pena que ainda seja cedo....
