Ardbeg 1979/2020 - Sig RR #9861

Special features: This extraordinary single malt whisky was distilled on September 13, 1979, at the renowned Ardbeg distillery on Islay and matured for an impressive 40 years in a bourbon cask. It was bottled on June 18, 2020, by Signatory Vintage at cask strength of 56.8% ABV. The bottling is limited to only 82 bottles, making it a true rarity for collectors and connoisseurs. Furthermore, the whisky was neither colored nor chill-filtered, which underscores its authenticity and depth.

Tasting Notes:

  • Nose: An intense aroma of creamy tar, accompanied by rich peat smoke, seaweed, and dried herbs.
  • Palate: Powerful and dynamic, almost syrupy, with flavors of black pepper, tar, saddle leather, and wood resins.
  • Finish: A long-lasting, spicy aftertaste with notes of tar, pepper, as well as classic maritime and medicinal accents that come through very nuanced.

Distillery/Bottler: Ardbeg is one of the most famous distilleries in Scotland, renowned for its bold and smoky single malts. The distillery is located on the southern coast of the Isle of Islay and has a tumultuous history. After a difficult period in the 1980s, Ardbeg was acquired by Glenmorangie in 1997, leading to a renaissance of the distillery. Signatory Vintage, the bottler of this whisky, is an independent bottler known for its high-quality single cask bottlings.
