Ardbeg Twenty One The Ultimate is a limited edition 21 year old Islay single malt, matured in ex-bourbon casks and bottled at 46% without chill-filtration. It was unveiled in the second half of 2016 and was said to mark the turbulent times the distillery went through in the 1990s. The nose combines tarry smoke, Ardbeg ice cream and black pepper, with green herbal notes of fennel or basil. Water brings out toffee, popcorn and buttery oak. The palate is peppery and fizzy, with liquorice, aniseed, marzipan, toasted rye bread, charcoal and peppermint. The finish is long and gentle, with coal tar, aniseed and smoky butter.

About Glenbotal

The idea of Glenbotal came to us naturally: as whisky lovers, we were always on the lookout for new experiences in the whisky world. That’s why we created Glenbotal and became our very own first customers. We buy unique and hard to find spirits from ballots and private collections. Then, we share them with a small circle of friends and people who can appreciate a good dram.
