Nose: Chocolate peat and creamy vanilla. Marshmallows and hints of citrus.

Taste: Full bodied. More of the same - fun chocolate peat. Add chocolate salted popcorn. And Smash! chocolate.

Finish: Medium to long finish. Even more of the same, and I’m fine with that. Rich and sweet jam in the mix towards the end.

Comment: Ardmore is fun!

Score 88/100
