Ardbeg Drum

Ardbeg Drum is a limited edition Islay single malt, released especially for Ardbeg Day. What makes this whisky special is its maturation in ex-bourbon casks, followed by a finish in rum casks, giving a unique tropical twist to the classic Ardbeg smokiness.

Tasting note

Nose

The nose opens with an explosion of pineapple, banana and vanilla, blended with Ardbeg's signature peat smoke and a hint of sea salt.

Taste

On the palate, flavours of tropical fruit, creamy caramel and spicy nutmeg emerge, perfectly balanced with smoky undertones.

Finish

The finish is long and smoky, with hints of sweet rum and spices, offering a wonderfully exotic whisky experience.

Ardbeg Distillery

Ardbeg Distillery is located on the south coast of the island of Islay, famous for its rich whisky tradition. Founded in 1815 by the MacDougall family, Ardbeg has a turbulent history with several closures and re-openings, but has become one of the most highly regarded Islay distilleries.

A distinctive feature of Ardbeg Distillery is its strong peat influence, resulting in whiskies with an intense smokiness and maritime character. The distillery uses traditionally handmade copper pot stills and local peat from the surrounding peat fields, which gives the whiskies their distinctive aromas of smoke, sea salt, and tar, combined with hints of citrus and vanilla.

Ardbeg whiskies are mainly matured in ex-bourbon casks, which ensures a deep and complex flavour. The distillery is also known for its innovative approach, with experimentation in different cask types and maturation processes producing unique and award-winning expressions.

The combination of traditional production methods, an iconic location and an unmistakable flavour profile makes Ardbeg a leading name in the world of Scotch whisky.
