Batch 2 of Ardnahoe Cask Strength is fairly similar to Batch 1, matured exclusively in First-Fill ex-Bourbon Casks, and bottled at 5 years and 61% (as opposed to 60.9%). It even has an identical tasting note... though we'll be the judge of that!
700 mlProducer Tasting Note
"Coastal brine, earthy peat and rich cocoa on the nose. Orchard fruits, herbal tea and salted caramel on the palate, leads into a smoky finish with citrus undertones."

The latest core release in the Ardbeg stable is Wee Beastie, a 5-year-old Ardbeg that was created to be the rawest and most peaty Ardbeg ever bottled. The whisky is matured in a mix of ex-Bourbon and Oloroso Sherry casks. 47.4%.
Producer Description
"Ardbeg Wee Beastie is the latest permanent expression to join the Distillery’s Ultimate Range. At just five years old, Wee Beastie is a feisty young creature with a formidable taste."
More from Ardbeg
"Our whisky creators set out to make the rawest, smokiest Ardbeg ever. The result is Ardbeg Wee Beastie and this tongue-tingling, beautifully smoky dram is the youngest Ardbeg we’ve ever made. On the snout, intense aromas of cracked blacked pepper mingle with sappy pine resin and a sharp tang of smoke. Suddenly, an explosive mouthfeel bursts forth with chocolate, creosote and tar. Savoury meats sink into the palate before the long salty mouthcoating finish slinks away… revealing the inner beast of this Islay icon. Young and intensely smoky, this is a dram untamed by age. Matured in ex-bourbon and Oloroso sherry casks, Wee Beastie is perfect for enjoying neat or as the mouth-watering main ingredient in a powerfully smoky cocktail."

Producer Description

Cask Lore is a fan-favourite classic – and one of our most complex, layered flavour profiles. With this special version, our Friends can enjoy it just like our whisky makers do."

Bottled at 50% from a marriage of first fill ex-Bourbon and first fill ex-Oloroso sherry casks, it is a reference to the deepest loch on Islay, Loch Ardnahoe. 88pts Whisky Fun
Producer Description
"Ardnahoe Infinite Loch has been matured in a combination of ex-Bourbon and ex-Oloroso sherry casks, and is bottled with no artificial colouring and no chill-filtration.
"Loch Ardnahoe's depth is not precisely known, though it's reputed to be the deepest loch on Islay. While it's said to be deep, with risks associated with exploration, a precise measurement hasn't been established. The water within is characterized by its softness, filtering through peat and rock."
