Ardbeg Grooves Feis Ile 2018

From the historic Ardbeg Distillery, established in 1815 on the windswept Isle of Islay, comes a whisky renowned for its bold and smoky character. This special release, created for the 2018 Feis Ile festival, uniquely utilizes heavily charred, grooved red wine casks to amplify the spirit’s interaction with the wood. The result is an aromatic and complex dram, delivering Ardbeg’s signature tarry smoke alongside a surprising depth of flavour and a rich, oily texture. Expect a balance of citric sweetness interwoven with the distinctive Islay peat, intensified by the innovative cask treatment – a truly distinctive expression of island whisky.
