€47.50 VAT included

Ardbeg Wee Beastie 5 Years 47.4% is a bold, young yet powerful single malt, aged for 5 years. This whisky has been matured for 5 years in Bourbon and Oloroso Sherry casks and stands out with its intense peaty character and remarkable depth, delivering a true explosion of flavors from the very first sip. Non-chill filtered, it allows the peaty aromas to fully develop, revealing a surprising richness for its young age. Ardbeg Wee Beastie embodies the wild and untamed spirit of Islay, with distinctive smoky influences and complex woody notes.

THE BRAND

Founded in 1815 by John Macdougall, the Ardbeg distillery experienced a first period of closure between 1981 and 1989 and again in 1996, it reopened its doors a year later in 1997. In 2004, to the delight of its many aficionados, a first bottling of Ardbeg Very Young (only 6 years old) brought this legendary single malt from the Isle of Islay into a new era. The Ardbeg distillery produces some of the most peated single malts in Scotland. In the past, the lack of ventilation in the malt drying ovens retained the peat smoke, thus explaining the very peated character of its single malt. Ardbeg single malts combine charming rusticity, great finesse and a richness of expression worthy of the title “best peated whiskies”.
