Ardbeg Heavy Vapours Committee Release
Single Malt
Ardbeg // Islay, Scotland
Ardbeg Heavy Vapours is the 2023 release to celebrate Ardbeg Day, held annually during the Islay Festival of Music and Malt (Fèis Ìle). Crafted by Dr. Bill Lumsden, this single malt whisky is made without the use of a purifier, a part of the still which gives Ardbeg a balance of fruit and smoke.
This lack of the purifier allows the heaviest vapours to rise up during the distillation process. This particular bottling is released for the brand's Committee Members and is bottled at a slightly higher proof (50.2% ABV) than the other limited edition release (46% ABV) with the same name.
