ARDBEG 1978 VINTAGE LIMITED EDITION

ARDBEG 1978 VINTAGE LIMITED EDITION

Single malt.

Located on the island’s rugged south coast, Ardbeg distillery represents the peatier end of the Islay spectrum. While it has endured some tough times, spending several years mothballed, the distillery has undergone a bit of a renaissance since being bought over by Glenmorangie and is now on a stable footing.

While it still retains its signature sooty spirit, Ardbeg has also adopted its new parent company’s fondness for experimental cask finishes, arguably increasing its appeal.

Distilled: 1978

Bottled: 1998

43% ABV / 70cl
