Ardbeg Committee Releases
Historical context
One of the first major releases after Ardbeg distillery's revival in 1997.
Special release
Exclusive release for the Ardbeg Committee
Allocation
Ardbeg Committee
Nose
Acrid and coastal with tarry ropes, mentholated tobacco, and a peppery brine— the essence of Ardbeg without frills. A rich smoke oscillated from winter cottage fires, coal dust, charred lemons, fennel root, and something more medicinal: sage, rosemary, and heather burnt to cleanse the air and balance the humors.
Palate
Medium-bodied, the flavors were clear and sharp with an intense brine, citrus, and medicinal herbal quality. Sweet peppers and tarry ropes remained, a touch of coal soot and herbal tonics that shifted toward char and patina on a hot wok, herbal coriander, and sweet, numbing mala.
Finish
The finish was long and peppery with a soft brine, beach tar, and driftwood.
