Serge Valentin (www.whiskyfun.com) bewertet diesen 63er Ardbeg mit 95 Punkten und beschreibt ihn wie folgt:

“Colour: orange gold. Nose: ah yes. It’s hard not to describe this baby just with ‘old Ardbeg’, it’s exactly the antithesis of any recent NAS Rollsancenovabeistdail. Despite the low strength, it’s actually much more aromatic and complex than most new versions, but also more dry, phenolic and empyreumatic. The first aroma that’s quite obvious in these old Arbbegs and that’s seldom to be found in new ones is camphor and even tiger balm, then soot, ashes and bonfire. Then more metal polish, graphite, cider apples, ‘old car engine’, high-end green tea… Anyway, this is simply beautiful. Mouth: good punch and a lot of salt in this one, all that on top of quite some leather and bitter chocolate. Does ‘the peacock’s tail’ after that, with some camphor, mint drops, orange blossom water, cured ham, liquorice, clams… and God knows what else. Like most of these 1963-1965 Ardbegs by G&M, it’s almost unbelievable that this was bottled at 40%. Probably more like 68%, rounded down to 40%. Just kidding. Finish: impressive, more on quince jelly and mint, always with this tar, this salt and this liquorice. Comments: extremely impressive, proof that you can have fabulous whisky that’s reduced to 40%, chill filtered and caramelised. SGP:357 – 95 points.”
