Product description

Product description
The Ardbeg Spectacular is the first from the popular and well-known Islay distillery to be matured in port casks as well as ex-bourbon casks. In addition to the classic bourbon cask maturation, the port casks give the Islay malt a rich flavour and interesting colouring. The special bottling was created for the Fèis Ìsle Festival 2024 and was initially only available to members of the Ardbeg Committee. On Ardbeg Day and the last day of the whisky festival on Islay, the Spectacular will go on sale on 1 June.

The Distillery: Ardbeg

The Ardbeg distillery was officially founded in 1815 by John McDougall. But Whisky was distilled long before that. There are no documentations, as Ardbeg was an illegal business back in 1794. read more
