Third edition in new series
This 3rd edition in the Smoketrails Collection cross the Atlantic for the first time, and lands in the world renowned wine region - Napa Valley.
Matured in Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon red wine casks, a first for Ardbeg, then married with American Oak Casks (ex-Bourbon).
The Napa Valley region of California, is known for its highly sought after Cabernet Sauvignon red wine casks. With a heart matured in Cabernet Sauvignon casks and married with classic ex-bourbon barrels, this whisky is a bold and rich spirit.
Tasting Notes:
Nose: Deep and intense, floral fragrance mingles with rich smoke and menthol.
Taste: Smoked plums and bonfire embers twist around aromas of jasmine and baked rye bread.
Finish: Truffles and tarry rope lead into espresso and antique leather before eucalyptus and camphor soothe the palate.
"Matured in bourbon barrels and cabernet sauvignon red wine casks, this is intensely peaty on first sniff, but it’s wonderfully aromatic peat fires, verging on bonfire smoke at times. Paired with this are aromas of plum, black olive tapenade, black truffle, and toasted sourdough. The palate mingles chocolate muffin, dried cranberry, spices, and peat smoke, with hints of menthol and eucalyptus stretching into the finish." - Jonny McCormick, Whisky Advocate (90 Points)
"The Ardbeg Smoketrails Napa Valley Edition is a superb whisky. The ashy atringency and minerality up front evolves to become softer and sweeter smoke. This combines really well with the fruity and sweet elements, which are so nicely integrated. Wine casks plus heavy peat smoke can be somewhat of a lottery. Here the marriage has brought out the sweetness from the wine barrel and peat smoke. This has rounded off some of the more prickly and sharper edges of the smoke." - Whisky For Everyone
