Ardbeg 1991 / 9 Year Old / Cask 2999 / Murray McDavid Islay Whisky

Murray McDavid's 1991 Ardbeg cask bottling captures the distillery at nine years old, early in its revival after closure, from a single cask (2999) and released in early 2000. At 46% ABV, this single cask offers a snapshot of Ardbeg's character before modern consistency protocols, with the variability and intensity that cask-strength maturation provides. The combination of rarity and bottling context makes this a historical marker for Islay whisky. Serious collectors interested in Ardbeg's resurgence during the 1990s will recognize its significance.
