I have bought the Ten, An Oa and Uigeadail. I have also tried several Bruichladdich whiskies and the usual other Islays. After decades of drinking sherried malts, I realised that, with the current disgusting state of the Scots Whisky Industry, many of the tastiest malts are coming from Islay these days. I mourn for the drams lost to psychopathic CEOs. In Scottish mythology the hag goddess of winter, Cailleach Bheur, uses the gulf to wash her great plaid, and this ushers in the turn of the seasons from autumn to winter. As winter approaches, she uses the gulf as her washtub, and it is said the roar of the coming tempest can be heard from as far away as twenty miles (thirty kilometres), lasting for a period of three days. When she is finished with the washing, the cloth is pure white, and becomes the blanket of snow that covers the land. [3] The Cailleach occupying the whirlpool was described as "the fiercest of the Highland storm kelpies" by Alasdair Alpin MacGregor. [4]

The vast majority of the whisky is matured in ex-bourbon oak, and because the distillery sits close to the sea on the Kildalton Coat of Islay, the beverage receives a salty, iodine flavour as it ages. This contributes to the overall flavour of Ardbeg whisky. With one sip, you’ll be transported to the rugged Scottish coast. Monro, Sir Donald (1549) Description of the Western Isles of Scotland. William Auld. Edinburgh - 1774 edition. The poet John Leyden, was an enthusiastic collector of old folklore. He compiled a poem, "The mermaid", based on a gaelic traditional ballad called Macphail of Colonsay and the Mermaid of Corrivrekin. The story states that this MacPhail was carried off by a mermaid and they lived together in a grotto beneath the sea where they had five children, but eventually he tired of her and escaped to land.

Another legend surrounds Norse king Breacan. In various stories, Breacan moored his boat near the whirlpool to impress a local princess, or alternatively to flee from his father across the gulf. In both stories Breacan was swept into the whirlpool, and his body dragged ashore later by his dog. Breacan may be named after the whirlpool, or its current name may be a Gaelic pun on his name.

The first major change in the Ardbeg story happened in 1838 when a spirit merchant from Glasgow bought the distillery. While John Macdougall’s son Alexander stayed behind to manage operations, the distillery was now under new ownership.

When approaching a cask strength whisky I always try it at full strength and then diluted to about 43%, just to get a baseline. At normal alcohol levels, this is sweet, soft and pleasant. It’s not a million miles away from Scottish Barley to be honest. Not too much peat. More of a seasoning. And it’s really quite nice. A bit chewy, with quite a long finish.
