Product description

Product description
This Ardbeg single malt whisky matured for 23 long years in selected bourbon and Oloroso sherry casks. The result is a unique single malt that celebrates and honours the traditions of Ardbeg. This first bottling of the limited Vintage_Y2K series marks a special milestone in the history of the Islay distillery Ardbeg: In February 2000, dedicated fans founded the Ardbeg Committee to keep the distillery open permanently. The whisky is the first Ardbeg whose roots go back to the beginning of the millennium.

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
