Ardbeg 21 Year Old 2016 Committee Release

Born from a distillery with a storied past on the Isle of Islay, this Ardbeg 21 Year Old embodies resilience and unwavering dedication to quality. Distilled during a period of significant change for Ardbeg, it matured patiently in 200 litre bourbon casks, carefully selected by a young Mickey Heads. The result is a complex whisky characterized by Ardbeg’s signature smoky intensity – tarry and sooty – beautifully balanced with bright citric sweetness and a rich, oily texture. This exceptional expression offers a glimpse into the heart of Ardbeg, a testament to its enduring spirit and distinctive Islay character, bottled in 2016 at 46% ABV.
