Ardbeg
Monsters of Smoke // Set of 3 // 200 ml Each
Product Description
Founded in 1815 and distilled on Islay, Ardbeg is renowned for its bold and complex, yet balanced flavors. The island is abundant with soft water, fertile soil, and acres of peat that makes it ideal for single malt whisky. In 2018, Ardbeg was named Distillery of the Year at the International Whisky Competition.
Ardbeg Ten Years Old is revered around the world as the peatiest, smokiest, most complex single malt of them all. Yet it does not flaunt the peat; rather it gives way to the natural sweetness of the malt to produce a whisky of perfect balance. Named World Whisky of the Year in 2008. A burst of intense smoky fruit escapes into the atmosphere of peat infused with zesty lemon and lime, wrapped in waxy dark chocolate. Bold menthol and black pepper slice through the sweet smoke followed by tarry ropes and graphite. Savor the aroma of smoked fish and crispy bacon alongside green bell peppers, baked pineapple, and pear juice. Add water and an oceanic minerality brings a breath of cool, briny sea spray. Waxed lemon and lime follows with coal tar soap, beeswax and herby pine woodlands. Toasted vanilla and sizzling cinnamon simmer with warm hazelnut and almond toffee.
Ardbeg Five Years Old Wee Beastie is the latest permanent expression to join the Distillery’s Ultimate Range. At just five years old, Wee Beastie is a feisty young creature with a formidable taste. The whisky creators set out to make the rawest, smokiest Ardbeg ever. The result is a tongue-tingling, beautifully smoky dram. On the snout, intense aromas of cracked blacked pepper mingle with sappy pine resin and a sharp tang of smoke. Suddenly, an explosive mouthfeel bursts forth with chocolate, creosote and tar. Savory meats sink into the palate before the long salty mouth-coating finish slinks away, revealing the inner beast of this Islay icon. Young and intensely smoky, this is a dram untamed by age. Matured in ex-bourbon and Oloroso sherry casks, Wee Beastie is perfect for enjoying neat or as the mouth-watering main ingredient in a powerfully smoky cocktail.
Ardbeg An Oa is singularly rounded, due in no small part to time spent in our newly established bespoke oak Gathering Vat where whiskies from several cask types—sweet Pedro Ximenez; spicy virgin charred oak; and intense ex-bourbon casks, amongst others—familiarize themselves with each other. The result is a dram with smoky power, mellowed by a delectable, smooth sweetness. Hallmark Ardbeg peat, dark chocolate, and aniseed are wrapped in smooth, silky butterscotch, black pepper, and clove, before rising to an intense crescendo of flavor.
