Hoist the Jolly Roger for Arrrrrrrdbeg! – Committee Release 2021, the first Ardbeg ever matured exclusively in ex-Rye whiskey casks. Bottled at a rumbustious 51.8 % ABV to toast the retirement of long-serving distillery captain Mickey Heads, this limited Committee bottling unleashes a rollicking union of Ardbeg’s trademark peat smoke with swashbuckling waves of peppery rye spice, orchard fruit and confectionery sweetness. Non-chill-filtered and bottled just for the Ardbeg Committee, Arrrrrrrdbeg! is a treasure fit for any smoky sea-dog’s stash.

Why We Think You’ll Love It:

  • First Ardbeg wholly aged in ex-Rye casks, marrying bold Islay peat with vibrant rye sweetness and spice

  • A Committee-only release (51.8 % ABV, non-chill-filtered) celebrating the tenure of legendary manager Mickey Heads

  • Delivers a riot of flavours: smoke, pepper, confectionery sweetness and coastal brine in perfect, playful balance

  • Limited edition collectible that captures Ardbeg’s spirit of innovation—ideal for peat lovers seeking a dram with true pirate swagger
