Product description

Product description
Ardbeg An Oa (an:oh) is inspired by the Scottish peninsula 'The Oa' on the island of Islay. Until 2017, Ardbeg fans could only access 3 standard bottlings. Now you can discover yet another whisky character from the distillery: An Oa is sweeter and spicier than its brother TEN.

    Abgang: lang Bonfire Smoke Spices

    Kommentar:
    Mehr Süße als andere Ardbegs und gut eingebundener, zugänglicher Rauch. Im Vergleich zu seinen Geschwisten aber dafür auch etwas "schwächer auf der Brust." Guter Einsteiger in die Ardbeg-Welt.
