Due to limited stock and expected high-demand, we are restricting this release to 1 bottle per household to share the whisky love as wide as possible.
The limited release for 2024's Ardbeg Day, Ardbeg Spectacular was matured in a combination of ex-bourbon and port wine casks, a first for the distillery. Non-chillfiltered and bottled at 46%. (Bottle size 750ml)
Nose: Perfumed and aromatic with lavender and incense candles. Leather, almond nuttiness and a touch of wax. A splash of water opens things up revealing woodsmoke, damp peat moss, menthol and antique leather.
Palate: Salty and viscous with salty, savoury, smoky flavours; eucalyptus oil, salted caramel toffee, smoked pecan nuts, fragrant woodsmoke, creosote and tar. A background sweetness, like a smoky pear crumble and fudge.
Finish: Lingering aftertaste, more leather, salted caramel and a cooling mentholic sensation.
