Summary

Ardbeg Blaaack Committee 20th Anniversary LIMITED EDITION is a special release celebrating two decades of the Ardbeg Committee. This single malt whisky hails from the renowned Islay region of Scotland, known for its peaty and smoky character. The whisky is matured in Pinot Noir casks from New Zealand, which imparts a unique and complex flavor profile to the spirit, making it a standout among Ardbeg's offerings.

On the nose, this whisky presents a rich bouquet of aromas, combining the classic Ardbeg peat smoke with notes of dark fruits and a hint of vanilla. The influence of the Pinot Noir casks is evident, adding layers of complexity and depth. This is a whisky that invites you to take your time and explore its many facets.

The palate is equally impressive, with a harmonious blend of smoky, fruity, and spicy flavors. The peat smoke is well-integrated, allowing the fruitiness from the wine casks to shine through. The finish is long and satisfying, leaving a lingering taste of smoke and dark chocolate. This limited edition release is a must-try for any whisky enthusiast, offering a unique twist on the classic Ardbeg profile.
