Ardbeg 1972 / 29 Year Old / Sherry Finish / Old Malt Cask Islay Whisky

Ardbeg's 1972 vintage, aged 29 years and finished for at least six months in sherry cask, represents a rare glimpse of the distillery's spirit from the pre-modern era. The sherry influence tempers Islay's typical peat and brine with dried fruit, leather, and warming spice, while the 50% bottling strength balances intensity with approachability. This single-cask release from Douglas Laing suits experienced drinkers seeking the convergence of aged peat and wine cask complexity.
