Ardbeg 19 Year Old Traigh Bhan Whisky Batch 4

A rare and captivating single malt whisky from the windswept shores of Islay. This 19 year old expression captures the duality of Ardbeg’s coastal home. Matured in a precise balance of American oak and Oloroso sherry casks. It layers smoke, salt, and sweetness into a dram of remarkable depth and complexity.

• Ardbeg 19 Year Old Traigh Bhan Whisky Batch 4 opens with sweet wood smoke and tart creme fraiche, deepening into savoury fennel, celeriac and roasted tea leaves.
• Charcoal and burnt toast aromas emerge, with hints of saddle soap and leather.
• The palate offers an intensely salty mouthfeel, evolving into medicinal tones, smoked pineapple, salted peanut brittle and lime. Aniseed flows across the tongue, followed by rich fudge, birch tar and crashing waves of peat smoke.
• The finish is long, sharp and savoury, defined by lingering smoke and satisfying intensity.

This Islay malt is a rewarding match for bold, umami-rich dishes. Enjoy it alongside smoked meats, grilled venison or mature cheeses to enhance its maritime savouriness.
