Expert Review

8/10

Ardbeg's FIRST whisky ever distilled without the purifier — the pipe that normally keeps Ardbeg's smoke-fruit balance. Removing it let the heaviest vapours rise, producing a darker, tarrier Ardbeg. Committee Release 2023. 50.2%, non-chill filtered. Darker, dirtier, weirder Ardbeg — Committee geeks love it.
