I tried my very first An Oa today and it knocks me out. I only knew the 10 and the Beastie but I definitely like this more. More balanced and mellowed.

can you recommend Ardbeg an oa .is it good smoky?
@peatbull3426 Жыл бұрын
Yes, its nice dram. Good introduction for Uggie, softer, less abv and almost twice cheaper. You cant go wrong. Just buy it and enjoy. 😁🥃🙋♂️

Very good ardbeg. I would Say this one taste better than the ardbeg 10, but is not as complex / incredible / good as the uigedall. Uigedall is juste CRAZY, the n'est whisky i've ever had, really. But this one is interesting still because it is more à daily drink (less alcohol) than the uigedall, and cheaper.

A lot of the northern islands in Scotland have no trees because the winds up there, have blown them over. Take a waterproof jacket and a fleece and a beanie hat if you go this far up into Scotland, in winter-time. Midge repellent too, in the summertime

I think the An Oa falls a little between some of the others but also a little short compared to the Ten, Corryvreckan and Uigeadail ... the nose develops nicely enough and is distinctly Ardbeg right off the bat there are things to look for and it has a pretty persistent smoky finish but to me it's not quite as fulfilling and finished as the others. Feels young, like the flavours maybe need to come together more.
@janteun3 Жыл бұрын
ofcourse this one is slightly worse then the 10 year old this one is no age statement that means they olso can put 4 year old whiskey in the bottle becouse the beastie ardbeg is 5 year old they put there a age statement on that bottle

@@janteun3 I don’t think An Oa is THAT young, to be fair. I am a great fan of the 10 however if feel like that quality of it has been somewhat declining lately, to where I looking to other whiskys in the price range …

Knight Artorias - I tried replying to Sonny's comment but it doesn't work for some reason. It does not matter how many languages I speak. Horst is capable of pronouncing the word correctly because he pronounces the word "vanilla" with a V. Also, Sonny says in his message "give these two gentlemen a break", but if he read my responses he would see that I pointed out that Ben pronounces available correctly with a V. So please tell Sonny that he is a dick, an idiot, and an asshole.
