Ardbeg 13 Year Old Fermutation Committee Release

Born from a fortunate accident at the historic Ardbeg Distillery on Islay, this 13 Year Old expression showcases the impact of an unusually extended fermentation process. Distilled in 2007 and bottled in 2022, the whisky reveals Ardbeg’s signature profile of rich, tarry smoke interwoven with bright citric sweetness and a distinctive oily texture. Allowing the washbacks to breathe for three weeks imparted a unique character to the spirit, resulting in a complex and remarkably balanced dram. This limited edition offers a fascinating glimpse into Ardbeg’s experimental spirit and the enduring legacy of this iconic Scottish distillery.
