Ardbeg Heavy Vapours / Ardbeg Day 2023 Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky

Heavy Vapours, released for Ardbeg Day 2023, experiments with distillery technique by removing copper purification to intensify vapour contact, creating an atypical spirit profile. The result distorts Ardbeg's fruit-smoke equilibrium toward heavier, more assertive character—peppermint, cardamom, dark chocolate, and eucalyptus layered beneath aggressive smoke. A provocative expression for adventurous palates seeking Ardbeg's boundaries tested.
