Official tasting notes:
Wholly matured in ex-rye casks, gunpowder, smoked banana and pear drift into vanilla and rye on the nose. A spicy mouthfeel hoists up and ignites a blunderbuss of fruity flavours. An armada of aniseed is tailed by smoked toffee and a distant hint of sourdough biscuits. The long finish lingers, with gentle smoke listing on the palate.

Description:
This special whisky was released to honour legendary Distillery Manager, Mickey Heads who retired from Ardbeg after 13 years at the helm. Mr Head comments: “……. Arrrrrrrdbeg is a particularly special dram. As it’s our first whisky matured in ex-rye casks, it means we’re able to get as close to the still as possible. So, it’s safe to say this is a ferociously good wee nip!”
