|
|
Ardbeg has announced the forthcoming release of Ardbeg Twenty One, a limited edition which will be available exclusively to Ardbeg Committee members.
This Ardbeg 21 year old was distilled in the mid 1990's, which was a turbulent time in Ardbeg’s history, we have seen very little whisky released which was produced in this era.
Ardbeg Twenty One is non chill-filtered and bottled at 46% ABV, it will be priced at £310 and goes on sale to committee members on the 21st September 2016
More info and tasting note here:

| The price is no surprise, still tempting as I am an Ardbeg fan. I am sure they will still sell it out no problem |

| I'll buy one. Or at least try. But I'm a mug and really like my Ardbeg. Can't wait! |

| I love Ardbeg but I can't afford to spend £310 on a single bottle. |

| Ordered 2 this morning, the moet hennessy site is so much easier than the way Ardbeg used to do it. Says it won't be delivered until Monday which is a shame. Hope everyone else manages to get one if they want one. |

| Too pricey for me - but odd that they let you put it in your bag before telling you it's out of stock! |

I have bought one but it has gone to a friend who missed out, he would have payed whatever was necessary at auction to get one.
I want to say it is over priced but to sell out in 38 minutes it probably isn't.
Be interesting to see if a certain someone makes this whisky of the year. _________________ Putting the func in dysfunctional. |

| I was too late, I really didn't expect it to sell out so quickly, I wonder how limited it was, anyone heard numbers? |

Just over 8000. Casks from 93 and 94 so important for Ardbeg fans. _________________ Putting the func in dysfunctional. |
