Hepp!
Ut och jaga! Bara 121 flaskor!! Destillerad 1975 och tappad vid 40.9%. Jag tycker £250/3500:- är för mycket så jag avstår denna gång. Jag ska ju ut och resa i sommar också...
Happy hunting!

Den kan jag också tänka mig att vara med på.
Jag vet inte om ni menar 1975 eller 1965, men jag är med i vilket fall som.

Ny Ardbeg
När jag var där förra året fick jag smaka på fat 4717 från 1975 helt underbart det bästa jag har druckit i hela mitt liv. Då sa dom att det var det äldsta som dom hade i lagerhuset, det och 3 fat till. 2 fat buteljerades kort därefter:
"Ardbeg 1975/2005 (44.7%, OB for Islay Festival, fino, Cask #4719, 188 bottles) Colour: gold. Nose: exceptional, a superb mix of peat smoke and tea. Some meaty notes, oxtail, smoked ham. Develops on herbal notes, hay, with very little fruitiness. Very maritime at that, and also quite medicinal. Great, as expected. Mouth: not extremely powerful and rather dry attack., like a peppered tea. Then some tropical fruits do appear, but it?s still dry. Very strong tea, with lots of tannins, cocoa, and quite some oak. Long but austere finish, always very dry. 92 points.
Ardbeg 1975/2005 (47.2%, OB for Islay Festival, oloroso, Cask #4704, 270 bottles) Colour: gold. Nose: sweet and marvelously smoky, with some notes of tea and herbal tea again and lots of dried fruits (banana, apricot, pear). Notes of coal smoke and garden bonfire. Quite some minty notes and a bit of camphor, and also some biscuit. More accessible than the fino version, I?d say. Mouth: rather sweet attack, with lots of apple juice, fruit salad and pepper. Gets quite spicy, tary and gingery, it makes me think of the old 10yo?s. It gets also a bit bitter after a moment and the finish is very peppery, with some grapefruit. I like it a little better than the fino, although most other maniacs preferred it to this excellent oloroso that I?d rate 94 points.
Now, as for the prices, they sell both for £180 a bottle. Last year it was £150 and in 2002, I remember it was £100. Sure, both are fantastic drams, and nobody's obliged to buy them, but still, now we know how it feels to be a cow ? when it?s milked. Not too enjoyable. Sure I bought some, and my tits are still sore..."
Så förmodligen är det här det 3:de fatet.
Men finns det pengar så köp.
