Each year Ardbeg celebrates Ardbeg Day with a new release. For 2023, Dr. Bill Lumsden experimented with removing the purifier from the still, removing the floral fruitiness from the spirit, and letting the peat shine. This is the regular, non-committee version that's bottled at 92 proof.

The Story

About Ardbeg Heavy Vapours Single Malt Scotch Whisky

Ardbeg is notorious for producing some of the boldest and most robust Scotch whisky in the industry. The distillery that was founded in 1815 lies on the southern coast of the island of Islay ― the island famous for its peated, smoky single malts. The Ardbeg Committee serves the common purpose of celebrating Ardbeg whisky through a series of limited-edition whisky releases that arrive annually, in time for Ardbeg Day. In 2023, Ardbeg released Heavy Vapours, the result of an experiment by Dr. Bill Lumsden. The purifier on Ardbeg's still is a large part of what gives Ardbeg the balance of smoky, and floral fruit notes. This single malt was produced without the purifier, making for an even bolder, darker, and untamed whisky. This is the regular, non-committee release that's bottled at a slightly lower 92 proof.

About Ardbeg

The southernmost of the Inner Hebridean Scottish Isles, the island of Islay (pronounced EYE-lah) is only 240 square miles and home to just over 3,000 inhabitants. Still, the island is one of just five distilling regions in Scotland whose identity is protected by law.

Ardbeg Distillery, which is situated on the southern coast of Islay, was founded in 1815 by the MacDougall family. By 1886, nearly one-third of the population of Islay worked at the distillery and today, it stands as a testament to Scottish heritage and tradition.

About Scotch

Scotch is the most popular whisky in the world and is considered the king of them all! There are five whisky regions in Scotland (six if you count the not officially recognized Islands), and each of them produces spirits with unique properties and distinct tasting notes. (The type of grain used determents the type of the scotch.)

Malt whisky is made of malted barley, and grain whisky uses other grains like corn or wheat. Most of the time, a whisky is blended from different distilleries hence the name blended scotch, but if a malt whisky is produced in a single distillery, we get something extraordinary called a single malt.

Tasting Notes

The nose is smoky with sea spray, hints of earthy, fruity, and floral aromas, and a touch of citrus. Peat mingles with maritime notes on the palate, leading to a smoky finish with a touch of chocolate.
