ARDBEG 'ARRRRRRRDBEG!' COMMITTEE RELEASE ISLAY SINGLE MALT
ARDBEG 'ARRRRRRRDBEG!' COMMITTEE RELEASE
Located on the island’s rugged south coast, Ardbeg distillery represents the peatier end of the Islay spectrum. While it has endured some tough times, spending several years mothballed, the distillery has undergone a bit of a renaissance since being bought over by Glenmorangie and is now on a stable footing.
While it still retains its signature sooty spirit, Ardbeg has also adopted its new parent company’s fondness for experimental cask finishes, arguably increasing its appeal.
This limited release was bottled to mark the departure of Mickey Heads, the distillery manager for 13 years. The whisky itself has been fully aged in Rye whisky casks.
51.8% ABV / 70cl
