A single cask Ardbeg distilled in March 1975 and matured for 27 years in a sherry cask. Douglas Laing bottled it in May 2002 in the Old Malt Cask series, at 50% in a 70cl bottle, from an outturn of 342 bottles. 1975 was the first year Ardbeg used large amounts of barley malted away from its own maltings.
The nose combines sherry with coffee, plum spirit, walnut, camphor, eucalyptus, liquorice and tar. The palate is rich, with pine resin, orange marmalade, peat and spices, and the finish is very long, ending on peppered plum jam and chocolate.
