Ardbeg Dark Cove is a limited-edition Islay single malt Scotch whisky released for Ardbeg Day 2016. Matured in a combination of dark sherry casks and classic ex-bourbon casks, it was created as a tribute to Islay's historic whisky-smuggling past. Bottled at 46.5% ABV, Dark Cove combines Ardbeg's characteristic maritime peat smoke with rich dark fruit, treacle, coffee and sherry-influenced sweetness.
Food Pairing: Pair with smoked brisket, barbecued ribs, cured meats, mature cheddar, dark chocolate or rich fruitcake.
Tasting Notes: Rich, earthy and smoky with dark chocolate, orange, treacle toffee and coffee followed by dried fruit, warming spice, charcoal and tar.
Nose: Meaty and earthy with dark chocolate, orange, treacle toffee, roasted coffee, oak and smoky bonfire notes.
Palate: Raisins and dates mingle with ginger and pepper before developing into smouldering charcoal, wood polish, creosote and savoury smoke.
Finish: Long, spicy and full-bodied with persistent toffee, coffee, tar and peat smoke.
