AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Airigh Nam Beist, pronounced 'Arry nam Baysht,' is a sought-after vintage bottling from Ardbeg. Sadly, discontinued due to depleted stocks, 'the Beist' was a favourite among Ardbeg enthusiasts. It showcases a crisp, clean character with assertive peatiness and a distinctive honeyed edge.

Producer's Tasting Notes
NOSE
The initial impression is of eating Ardbeg ice cream on the beach – the combination of sea spray, creamy vanilla ice cream infused with hints of peat oil, finished with a drizzle of gooey fudge sauce. Cutting through this luscious sweetness is an exciting assortment of fennel and pine nuts, zesty limes and sherbet with a touch of geranium leaves and lavender.
TASTE
Definitely Ardbeg on the taste with peat, seaweed bonfire smokiness. Crispy smoky bacon, maple syrup and antiseptic lozenges leave a peppery and oily feel on the palate. Sweet and fruity flavours of ripe autumn fruits and chocolate limes emerge as notes of black coffee, liquorice and reminders of parma violets linger in the background.
FINISH
Long on the finish with dried peat and creamy notes.
