PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Ardbeg Smokiverse is the 2025 limited-edition release celebrating Ardbeg Day and the 25th anniversary of the Ardbeg Committee. This Islay single malt ventures into new territory with a "high-gravity mash," a technique involving reduced water in the mash tun, resulting in a denser wort. This process amplifies fruity esters, leading to a tropical twist on Ardbeg's classic peaty profile.
Matured in ex-bourbon casks and bottled at 48.3% ABV, Smokiverse offers an aroma of smoked bubblegum, ripening barley, and toasted sourdough. The palate delivers a creamy texture with notes of tar, creosote, aniseed, clove, and muscovado sugar, culminating in a finish of earthy peat moss and bonfire embers.
750 ml, 48.3 ABV (96.6 Proof)
"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.
