Ardbeg 1978 / Bot.1998 Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky

Ardbeg 1978, bottled in 1998 after roughly twenty years in oak, is a scarce and significant Islay single malt from a turbulent period in the distillery's history. At £1,350 it demands serious consideration, but for collectors and committed peat lovers alike, it delivers.
