Ardbeg is renowned as being among the peatiest of all the Islay malts, as measured in PPM phenol—the “smoky standard” of Islay malts. But there is a lot going on beneath the ashy, campfire-in-a-glass surface. Dark Cove (called “the darkest Ardbeg ever” by the brand) is matured in a combination of ex-bourbon barrels and dark-sherry casks, and the sherry influence is felt up front, with sweet raisin and dark berry notes on the tip of the tongue. The classic Ardbeg smoke-and-peat flavors come through loud and clear on mid-palate, but the sweet, fruity undertones remain. With a whisky this big-flavored, and bottled at 110 proof, it would not be unreasonable to expect a few hot embers on the finish—but it’s actually long, clean, and stunningly smooth.
