Ardbeg 8 For Discussion is an eight-year-old Islay single malt, bottled at 50.8% ABV in a 70cl bottle. It was created for members of the Ardbeg Committee as an experiment in how younger spirit behaves at high strength with heavy peat.
It was matured in a mix of ex-bourbon and richer casks, and is non-chill filtered.
The nose brings raw peat smoke, ashy embers, tar, black pepper, lemon zest and salty air. On the palate there is charred driftwood, smoked malt, citrus, white pepper, green apple, herbs and toasted grain. The finish is long and smoky, with ash, coastal salt, citrus pith and a peppery glow.
