Ardbeg - Committee Exclusive Islay Single Malt - 17 year old Whisky 70cl 40% ABV

Awarded World's Best Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky 2025 at the prestigious World Whiskies Awards 2025! Originally introduced in 1997, over a quarter-century ago, Ardbeg 17 Years Old marked a triumphant return for the Distillery after its revival. Gracefully refined yet quintessentially Ardbeg, this distinguished whisky captivated the Committee, establishing an enduring legacy for Ardbeg’s craft. Master Distiller Dr. Bill Lumsden has painstakingly reimagined this classic, preserving every subtle detail of the original. Bottled at 40% ABV to mirror its debut, this revival evokes the essence of its forerunner. Expect delicate coastal herbs and faint medicinal whispers, unfolding into a striking minerality, followed by layers of sweet peat smoke and toasted barley. Its bold smoky soul shines through, laced with traces of sea tar and seasoned oak.
