Ardbeg Lord Of The Isles

Born on the windswept shores of Islay, Ardbeg Lord of the Isles embodies the rugged character of its island home. Originally released in 2001, this expression marries the distillery’s hallmark smoky intensity – reminiscent of tar and soot – with a surprising citric sweetness and a rich, oily texture. Crafted from a vatting of casks initially from 1976 and 1977, subsequent releases matured for even longer, developing a complex depth over decades. The result is a powerfully evocative whisky, a testament to Ardbeg’s enduring spirit and a glimpse into a storied past.
