70cl 47.8% abv Scotch Whisky Single Malt Islay
The second release in a limited series of luxury bottlings exploring ages, maturation casks, abv and volume, this 24 Year Old Ardbeg Vintage Y2K was laid down way back in the year 2000, in the frenzied celebrations of the new millennium. Talk about a serendipitous dram for a special occasion!
Bottled at a custom abv of 47.8%, the liquid was matured in bourbon casks, with a portion finished in amontillado sherry casks to be finished - a first for Ardbeg!
Back to topOur Hamish has had a sip and jotted down his thoughts.
Nose: Deep, pungent spice mixed with beautiful notes of creamy toffee, flowering blackcurrants, creosote, coal tar soap, antique leather and almond nuts, with a splash of water, hints of charcoal, graphite and damp moss emerge, along with a distinct sooty note.
Palate: A burst of deep intense, smoky flavours – coal tar mingles with woodsmoke, while antiseptic lozenges meet bonfire embers. The Amontillado sherry casks are present, albeit in the background, with subtle notes of toffee, leather, cinnamon and clove.
Finish: Long, lingering notes of menthol, eucalyptus, linseed oil and charcoal.
