The Ardbeg Distillery, located on the southern coast of Islay, is one of the most iconic names in the world of whisky. Established in 1815, Ardbeg is known for producing some of the most peaty and smoky single malts in Scotland. Despite facing numerous challenges, including periods of closure throughout its history, Ardbeg has persevered to become a beloved brand among fans of Islay whisky.
This unique expression has been carefully matured in a combination of Madeira and Bourbon casks, resulting in an extraordinary whisky that balances Ardbeg’s signature peat smoke with the sweet, rich influence of Madeira wine and the creamy vanilla notes from the American oak. Bottled at 46%abv, this release is non-chill filtered- this decision was designed to push the boundaries of flavour and innovation, making it a true taste of Ardbeg.
