Ardbeg Smokiverse – Ardbeg Day 2025

Ardbeg Smokiverse is a limited edition Islay single malt Scotch whisky, released for Ardbeg Day 2025. It is bright gold in the glass. The nose is fruity and estery, with smoky bubblegum, ripening barley and fresh sourdough. A little water brings out sweet peat smoke and softly smoked tropical fruit. The palate has a rich, creamy texture, with soot, creosote, aniseed and clove balanced by muscovado sugar, before wood and charcoal come forward. The finish is long, with earthy peat moss and the glow of a crackling campfire. The bottle comes in a futuristic design to match its otherworldly theme.
