- Description
- Ardbeg's 1977 vintage, released in limited batches between 2001 and 2004 at 46% ABV, represents the distillery's spirit from a historic era now decades mature. Aged in ex-bourbon casks, the whisky delivers aged peat character with leather, tobacco leaf, and subtle maritime notes alongside mellowed smoke. The texture is silky and refined, the finish long and contemplative. A rare bottling suited to collectors and those appreciating how time has softened without diminishing Ardbeg's peated core.
