Description

This year's special Ardbeg release for Fèis Ìle, the annual festival celebrating all things Islay, is inspired by the golden age of 1960s Italian cinema. Ardbeg Dolce Fèis Ìle 2026 is a dramatic blend of Mediterranean charm and Ardbeg's bold, rugged spirit, balancing Marsala sweetness with classic Islay peat. The single malt has been aged in a combination of Ardbeg's signature bourbon barrels and Marsala dolce casks from Sicily.

Nose
Fragrant aromas of apricot, sun-ripened oranges, and orange marmalade, intertwined with dark chocolate, olive groves, soft smoke, and salted nuts.

Rich and layered with sweet citrus, dried fruit, roasted almonds, and caramelized sugar, balanced by zesty lemon rind, dried herbs, smouldering applewood, and classic Ardbeg smoke.
Finish
Long and warming with lingering peat, cocoa, sweet wine-cask richness, smoked wood, dry tobacco, and bonfire ash.
