Tasting notes från Malt Maniacs: Officiella tasting notes:

Ardbeg 6yo 1997/2003 'Very Young Exclusive Committee Reserve' (58.9%, OB, from Thomas)
Nose: Feinty start, quickly sweetening out. Hint of (pepper)mint? Tea. And 'lively' peat, of course. Some organics as well, but not as much as you usually find in the older bottlings. Great nose, though!
Taste: Very odd; this feels utterly drinkable at C/S. Then the trademark delayed explosion of peat. Smoke. Within 15 seconds it grows from a relative weakling into a hot and dry peat monster. Long finish.
Score: 88 points - excellent, and its peaty power almost makes up for the lack of ageing. Almost... Inga
