Ardbeg distillery presents Ardbeg Anamorphic Committee 2023 48.2%, released in 2023. There were an unknown number of bottles in this release. This whisky has a unique nose of earthy, dusty, and slightly biscuity, this is a most curious ardbeg, almost from an alternative universe. the sooty/tarry notes are clear but restrained, and are balanced out by some silky vanilla. water opens up a myriad of herbal and floral notes- smoked etiver root, aniseed, fennel, chrysanthemum and jasmine, to name but a few, complimented by a mouthfeel that is peppery and warming, and precedes an explosion of fiery, spicy flavours – chili – flavoured chocolate, bitter sweet mocha, briar wood, birch tar, ground black pepper and smoked artichokes on the palate, and topped off by a sooty/tarry notes building to a crescendo of rich, smoky flavours, with an incredible, lingering charcoal bitter almonds and molasses finish.

Ardbeg
The distillery can be found in a small cove on the south coast of Islay. It was in 1815 that the distillery was established and founded by John McDougal. Despite going on to sell in 1838, Ardbeg continued to be ran by John’s children. In 1853 Ardbeg boasted the first female distiller’s in Scotland after the death of Alexander, their elder brother. The family also went on to buy back the distillery in 1922 remaining at the helm until 1977. Following financial difficulties the distillery had a hiatus from 1981 to 1989, when distillation resumed it was on a much smaller scale. The distillery was sold again in 1997 to Glenmorangie Co. and restored to its former grandeur and as we know it today. Ardbeg has gone on to win many awards and enjoys releasing bottles to celebrate contemporary events. In 2021 a new stillhouse is completed doubling capacity. They are open year round in their visitor centre, bar and tours (Ardbeg 2023).
