Ardbeg 1990 / Airigh Nam Beist / Bot.2006 Islay Whisky

Ardbeg's 1990 vintage, bottled in 2006 after 16 years in ex-bourbon casks, represents the distillery at peak intensity during a period of cult appreciation among peat enthusiasts. The nose and palate deliver uncompromising Islay character: tar, brine, and smoldering peat with a thread of maritime minerality and subtle vanilla from the wood. The texture is full and oily, with a long, medicinal finish that lingers impressively. This is a benchmark heavily-peated Scotch for serious peat lovers and collectors seeking bottles from Ardbeg's most celebrated era.
