Ardbeg An Oa BBQ Smoker Edition

Born on the rugged, windswept Isle of Islay, Ardbeg An Oa captures the spirit of its namesake – the dramatic Mull of Oa peninsula. This expression, released in 2017, showcases Ardbeg’s signature intensely smoky character, balanced with notes of rich, dark fruit from Pedro Ximenez sherry casks and the vanilla sweetness of bourbon. The influence of charred virgin oak adds a layer of complexity, resulting in a full-bodied whisky with a distinctive oily texture. Expect a vibrant interplay of tarry smoke, citric brightness, and a long, warming finish – a true taste of Islay’s coastal heart.
