ARDBEG SCOTCH SINGLE MALT LIMITED COMMITTEE EXCLUSIVE EDITION 17YR 750ML

Released over 25 years ago in 1997, 17YO was one of the first bottlesto leave the Distillery after its reopening. Dr. Bill Lumsden has meticulously crafted this release to mirror theoriginal, retracing the flavor profile note by note and choosing to bottleat 40% strength, just as it was back them. Tasting Notes: Aroma: Fresh and clean, with hints of pine resin, aniseed, sea spray and lavendersoap – very gentle, restrained and rather elegant for an Ardbeg.Taste: A beautiful, creamy texture is followed by a lovely combination of flavors,with aniseed, toffee, café latte, fennel and gentile antiseptic soap.Finish: The peat smoke is present, but in a very restrained manner, and leads intoa lingering aftertaste with chewy oak, cocoa powder and tar.
