Product description

The Ardbeg Y2K single malt matured for 23 long years in selected bourbon and Oloroso sherry casks. The result is a unique whisky that celebrates and honours the traditions of Ardbeg. This first bottling of the limited Vintage_Y2K series marks a special milestone in the history of the Islay distillery Ardbeg: In February 2000, dedicated fans founded the Ardbeg Committee to keep the distillery open permanently. The whisky is the first Ardbeg whose roots go back to the beginning of the millennium.
