Ardbeg has experimented a lot with heavily charred casks, the first and most successful is the Ardbeg Alligator from 2011 - sweet (vanilla, honey), meaty, peaty and delicious. If your nostalgic for Ardbeg this whisky might be the turning point where Ardbeg was still releasing fantastic whisky still but the LVMH marketing teams goal of creating a hip aspirational lifestyle brand was just about to takeover and start ruining everything.
Notes from the Distillery
'Ferocious 'Alligator' charring of new American white oak casks has created a spicy, dark dram of hidden depths, within which lurk deep tarry coffee, barbecue sizzle and sooty aromas.
Lurking within is an Ardbeg of hidden depths. Extremely fierce charring of the oak cask gives Ardbeg Alligator a unique spicy bite that'll catch you unawares. Charge your glass with a splash of water and roll it around and around in your jaws!'
