This unusually delicate, yet unmistakably Ardbeg whisky quickly won the hearts of the Ardbeg Committee and set an exceptional standard for the future.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhen the whisky was retired in 2004, many believed they would never see it again. However, its return was being carefully prepared behind the scenes. Bill Lumsden, the Master Distiller, meticulously based the new bottling on the original, retracing the flavor profile note by note and bottling it at 40% ABV, just like back then, to continue the tradition.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTaster's note\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eColour: Bronze.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNose: Fresh, elegant, hints of pine resin, anise notes, sweet peat smoke, malted barley, lavender soap.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePalate: Creamy, mild, peat smoke, fennel, anise, café latte.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFinish: Long-lasting, robust oak, tar, cocoa powder.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ardbeg","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55680503644489,"sku":"61818","price":224.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/4575\/1008\/files\/646ce0e27b98be6337f4e70696b8b8c4.jpg?v=1792490839","url":"https:\/\/malva.si\/products\/ardbeg-17-years-old-the-ultimate-committee-exclusive-islay-single-malt-40-vol-0-7l-in-giftbox","provider":"Malva","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
