Aged 19 years
Summary
Ardbeg Traigh Bhan is a 19-year-old Islay single malt whisky known for combining the distillery’s smoky coastal style with added maturity and refinement. It is aimed at drinkers who enjoy peat but want something more layered and composed than a younger, more forceful bottling.
Expect a balance of smoke, maritime character, and oak influence, with the age bringing greater depth and a more polished feel. It is often seen as a mature expression of Ardbeg’s distinctive house style.
