Ardbeg Corryvreckan 57.1% 70cl 57.5 some cloves and mint sprigsArdbeg Corryveckan 57. 1% ABV A fantastically smoky dram from the gloriously peaty Ardbeg. The iconic Islay distillery decided to bottle a whisky that really leans into the medicinal side of its character, and the results do not disappoint. There are deep herbal, savoury notes in with all the smoke theres complexity and elegance in with the power. It seems fitting that Corryvreckan is named after a nearby whirlpool Nose: Theres an immediate tidal wave
