In 2009, Jim Murray’s Whisky Bible named Ardbeg Uigeadail “World Whisky of the Year” – in praise of its “utter silky brilliance” and “complexity on a level only a handful of distilleries in the world can even dream of reaching”.
Pronounced “Oog-a-dal”, it’s a special vatting that marries Ardbeg’s traditional deep, smoky notes with luscious, raisiny tones of old ex-Sherry casks.
