Ardbeg Smokiverse
$154.99
The Ardbeg Committee celebrates its 25th Anniversary this year, with the release of Ardbeg Smokiverse. This Ardbeg Day bottling has been bottled at 48.3% from a batch of spirit produced from a high gravity mash. According to Ardbeg "This process unlocks a fruitier, more intense Ardbeg. Layers of muscovado sugar, ripe barley, and toasted sourdough bread, culminate in a burst of ripe tropical fruits and sweet peat." Limit 2 Per Customer!
Producer Description
"As we celebrate 25 years of the Ardbeg Committee in 2025, we venture further into space once more… Behold the immense magnetism of Ardbeg’s mash tun. Responsible for converting our malted barley into fermentable sugars (mashing), all life at Ardbeg revolves around the tun. This time, however, it has become a force to be reckoned with, as we concentrate its power to materialise a new frontier of flavour for Ardbeg.
"Experimenting with a process called ‘high gravity mashing’, our intrepid whisky creators vastly decreased the amount of water in the mash tun, then packed more grain into the mix than ever before. Crushing and compressing every drop of liquid, this unconventional mash has magnified the intensity of flavour-active acetate esters. Ramping up the density of wort to astronomical levels, we’ve drawn in fruitier, sweeter flavours from the deepest corners of the mash tun."

Aged in bourbon and Oloroso sherry casks, each hand-selected batch reveals subtle variations in flavour for Ardbeggians to explore.

Whiskyland Ch.20 Kildalton 20 Year
$849.99
This 2003 vintage, Kildalton (cough Ardbeg), was matured 20 years in a Refill ex-Bourbon Barrel before bottling at 53.7%. 90.66pts Whiskybase - Limit 1 Per Curstomer!
Producer Description
"Welcome to the far future of Whiskyland. Please excuse the mess, but the rise and fall of countless civilisations, distilleries and 'brands' has left a fair bit of clutter over the fathomless aeons of time. While you are acclimatising, please pour yourself a hefty measure of this 22 year old 'Kildalton' Islay malt whisky and relax. It was aged for 22 years in a 2nd fill barrel, then finished in sub-space cryo-stasis for Googolplex^(Graham's Number). It was finally bottled at natural cask strength for the enjoyment of all post-consciousness beings in the present era of Whiskyland."
Ardbeg Traigh Bhan 19 Year Batch 6
$389.99
Batch 6 of the Ardbeg Traigh Bhan 19 Year is rumoured to be the second last in the series. It was matured in ex-Bourbon and Sherry casks before bottling at 46.2%. 88pts Whisky Base
Producer Description
"Like its award-winning predecessors, Batch 6 is aged in bourbon and Oloroso sherry casks. However, with more refill bourbon casks in its recipe, this bottling invites more of Ardbeg’s bold spirit character to surge forth. Traigh Bhan’s trademark delicate balance meets ripples of olive oil and newly mown lawn grass, with classic Ardbeggian waves of tarry rope, peppermint, dark chocolate, soot and fennel."
Ardbeg 25 Year
$1,499.99
Bottled at 46%, the Ardbeg 25 Year is the oldest whisky in the distillery's core range.
Producer Description
"Bottled from incredibly rare casks filled during some of the Distillery’s darkest days, this is the oldest whisky to join our core range. This supreme expression proves unequivocally that age cannot tame Ardbeg’s smoky power. But it can yield some of the most complex and majestic flavours ever to burst forth from Ardbeg Distillery."
Smokehead Sherry Bomb Islay Single Malt
$114.99
Bottled at 48% after finishing (presumably) in "Spanish Sherry casks," the whisky is rumoured to hail from the Ardbeg Distillery; but we can't really be sure!
Smokehead Terminado Islay Single Malt
$105.99
The latest Smokehead line extension is Terminado, a Tequila cask finished Islay single malt, reputedly from Ardbeg, bottled at 43%.
Producer Description
"Terminado brings together Smokehead Islay single malt with tequila. It’s the meeting of two restless spirits – and the awakening of a mesmerising whisky. There, in this tequila cask finish, fiery peat awakes with wild agave. Smoke mixes with chewy meringue. And citrus spins with sweetness. You ain’t tasted nothing like this before."
