Ardbeg Uigeadail 750 ml

Ardbeg Uigeadail is a single malt Scotch whisky from the Ardbeg distillery on Islay, combining heavily peated whisky matured in ex-bourbon casks with whisky finished in sherry casks, named after the loch that supplies the distillery's water. It's bottled without chill filtration or added color at a higher-than-standard proof. Expect a nose of smoke and dried fruit, a palate of peat, raisin, and dark chocolate, and a long, smoldering finish that balances sherry sweetness against Islay smoke. It suits drinkers who want Ardbeg's signature peat with more sherry-cask richness than the standard 10 Year.

How to drink Ardbeg Uigeadail

A few drops of water opens up the sherry sweetness without taming the smoke, so it's worth trying both neat and cut before settling on a pour.
