Description
Ardbeg Drum Committee Limited Edition is a bold and distinctive expression, crafted to celebrate Ardbeg Day during the 2019 Islay Festival (Feis Ile). This annual limited release pays tribute to the lively spirit of the festival and marks a significant milestone for the distillery—Ardbeg’s first-ever rum cask whisky. The Ardbeg Drum is a unique fusion of Islay’s renowned peaty character with the exotic sweetness and spice brought by Caribbean rum casks, creating a whisky that is both familiar and excitingly different. A special release for the Ardbeg Committee, it represents a playful yet masterful exploration of flavor, adding a tropical twist to Ardbeg’s smoky legacy.
On the nose, Ardbeg Drum instantly captivates with its vibrant aromatic profile. The signature peat smoke of Ardbeg is present but softened by an intriguing sweetness from the rum casks. Pine resin and smoky wood are joined by fragrant notes of ripe bananas, juicy pineapple, and a hint of vanilla, evoking images of tropical beaches while maintaining Ardbeg’s unmistakable Islay character. As the whisky breathes, layers of subtle spices emerge, enhancing its complexity and inviting you to dive deeper into its exotic blend.
The palate is a delightful dance of flavors, where the boldness of Ardbeg’s smoky spirit meets the lush, fruity warmth of rum. Smoky wood, cinnamon, and nutmeg intertwine with tropical fruits like bananas and pineapple, offering a balance of sweet and savory elements. The mouthfeel is rich and textured, with hints of dried fruits and vanilla cream adding depth. The finish is long and smoky, with lingering touches of spice and sweetness that leave a memorable impression. Ardbeg Drum Committee Limited Edition is an adventurous yet refined whisky, perfect for Ardbeg enthusiasts and collectors who appreciate the distillery’s innovative approach to cask selection.
