DESCRIPTION

The Ardbeg Anthology – The Unicorn's Tale 14 Years is the second release in the limited Anthology series from the Ardbeg distillery. This Islay single malt whisky is aged for 14 years in a combination of Madeira and ex-bourbon casks, giving it a balanced and complex flavor profile. The inspiration for this release comes from the legendary tale of the unicorn, Scotland's national animal.

The aroma begins with sweet and fruity notes of banana bread, accompanied by light peat smoke and a delicate touch of wood. On the palate, fresh citrus notes, peaches, and a hint of smoked fruits and anise unfold. The long finish showcases the distinct influence of the Madeira casks, with hints of menthol, cloves, and smoke.

With an alcohol content of 46%, this whisky is non-chill filtered and has already won several awards, including Double Gold at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition 2024. This edition appeals to lovers of smoky yet fruity whiskies who are looking for a special release.

  • Ardbeg - Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky

    Perched on the rugged southern coast of Islay, part of Scotland's Inner Hebrides, Ardbeg Distillery is a name revered in the world of Scotch whisky. Established in 1798 and entering commercial whisky production in 1815, Ardbeg boasts a rich history intertwined with the very essence of Islay whisky-making.

    Ardbeg is celebrated for its intensely peated Islay whisky, a style defined by the use of malted barley from the Port Ellen maltings. This distinct peat character, combined with traditional distillation methods, results in a whisky that is both deeply complex and unmistakably Islay. Now under the stewardship of luxury conglomerate Louis Vuitton Moët Hennessy, Ardbeg continues to uphold its legacy while embracing innovation.

    The distillery has earned global acclaim with its award-winning expressions. The Ardbeg Ten Years Old, for instance, was named World Whisky of the Year and Scotch Single Malt of the Year in Jim Murray's Whisky Bible 2008. Ardbeg Uigeadail continued this trend, receiving the same accolades in 2009 and 2010. Such recognition cements Ardbeg's status as a producer of exceptional Scotch.

    Ardbeg's pioneering spirit extends beyond traditional whisky-making. In 2011, the distillery sent 20 vials of Ardbeg spirit and wood particles to the International Space Station, showcasing its commitment to innovation. Despite its international fame, Ardbeg remains deeply rooted in its local community, employing around sixty staff members who reside locally.

    Operating with two pot stills, Ardbeg produces approximately 10,000 casks (1.4 million liters) of spirit annually. The name 'Ardbeg,' derived from the Scottish Gaelic 'An Àird Bheag,' meaning 'The small headland,' is not just a name but a testament to the distillery's connection to the land and community.

    Ardbeg's unique geographical location, rich history, award-winning bottlings, and innovative spirit make it a standout name in the world of Scotch whisky, offering a taste experience that is as profound as its heritage.
