Ardbeg Vintage_Y2K 24 Years Old
Ardbeg experiments with amontillado casks for the second vintage in it's millennium series.
Ardbeg Islay single malt Scotch whisky shares the second ultra rare release in it's millennium series; the delicately nutty and smoky Ardbeg Vintage_Y2K 24 Years Old. Created at a pivotal moment in Ardbeg's story, this highly limited bottling comprises some of the first Ardbeg ever finished in Amontillado sherry casks.
The year 2000 marked a new beginning for Ardbeg. After being saved from extinction in 1997, the Distillery was fully restored and returned to production. Each whisky in the Vintage_Y2K series celebrates that revival, uniting spirit from Ardbeg’s historic 51-year-old still with new whisky-making techniques.
For the second release, Director of Whisky Creation Dr Bill Lumsden MBE finished this rare millennium stock in Amontillado sherry casks – a first for Ardbeg. The result is a 24 Year Old whisky of exceptional delicacy, with notes of creamy toffee, almonds and tobacco. Bottled at 47.8% ABV, this limited-edition expression is a true collector’s piece.
