Ardcore is a limited edition release from Ardbeg which has been created to celebrate Ardbeg Day held each year during the Islay Festival of Music and Malt (Fèis Ìle). Like previous years, Ardbeg has created two versions of the same whisky for Ardbeg Day 2022 -- a higher proof version for its Committee Members released May 1, 2022, and this lower proof version (46% ABV) released in early June 2022.

Tasting Notes

"The whisky is meaty and full of coastal peat aromas with seaweed and lemon found on the nose. There's a touch of coffee grounds here too as well as some herbal notes. The whisky is moderately full and soft in the mouth, but has a peppery and spicy bite in the midpalate. The finish is on the bitter side and the roasted malt for sure comes through in those coffee notes mixed with the peat smoke. It's a fine whisky, but it's young and the nose is more compelling than the taste. But the theme this year seems to be a rough-and-ready punk rock whisky so it seems that their end goal has been achieved."
