ARDBEG 17 Year Old

ARDBEG 17 Year Old

Located on the southern coast of Islay, an island in Scotland. Ardbeg whiskies are known for their intensely smoky and peaty character, which stems from the traditional production methods employed at the distillery. The malt used in Ardbeg’s whiskies is malted with peat, which imparts a distinctive smoky flavour during the drying process. The whiskies often feature complex layers of maritime, briny, and medicinal notes, with hints of citrus and chocolate.

The Glenmorangie plc revival in 1997 saw Ardbeg receive its first official distillery bottlings. Due to the years of inactivity, this 17 year old was the first age-statement they could release. The classic 10 year old did not appear until 2000.The spirit used to make up this release would have been distilled and filled in to casks during the period when Hiram Walker owned the distillery, with production taking place between 1977 and 1981.
