Whisky Forum - Ardbeg Supernova 2015 The Final Release

William

Amongst all the reporting of Ardbeg releasing the results of their Ardbeg in Space experiment this week you may have missed the announcement of the Final Release of Ardbeg Supernova 2015 which is being released to mark the conclusion of the Ardbeg in Space experiment.

I have posted some info on the results of the experiment and a video interview with Ardbegs Dr Bill Lumsden, Charlie MacLean and the director of Nanoracks who arranged for the Ardbeg sample to go into space.

They are selling it by email invite, emails go out tomorrow so watch your inbox if interested. I have the feeling there will be plenty to go around all Committee members

Yeah bit of a jump, usually "only" around Â£80-£90 for a committee release.

No thanks, I'll skip it, like the last 2.

I assume no email meant no invite to buy which meant no bottle?
