Ardbeg 'Vintage_Y2K' is a 23 year old Islay single malt, distilled in 2000 and bottled at 46% in a 70cl bottle. It is one of the limited releases from the distillery. The whisky was matured in a combination of oloroso and bourbon casks. The nose is herbal and sweet with a little smoke, lemon balm, linseed oil and candied walnuts; water brings out heather honey, creosote and tent canvas. The palate has a fizzy, sherbet-like texture, with early sweetness followed by aniseed, toffee, digestive biscuits, peppermint, menthol, tar and coffee grounds. The finish is sooty and tarry, ending on antiseptic lozenges, bitter orange and oak tannins.

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.
