Ardbeg Fermutation 13 Year Old Committee Release 2022 is a limited-edition, age-statement single malt whisky produced at the Ardbeg Distillery on the Isle of Islay. This collectible single malt is the product of a happy accident that occurred in 2007 when a broken boiler caused the fermentation process at the Ardbeg Distillery to go on for much longer than usual. This extended fermentation resulted in a unique and complex whisky with notes of mixed herbs, vibrant zest, smoked orange, grapefruit, peppermint, aniseed, malty biscuits, cardamom, throat lozenges, tar, mint, toffee, and cigar ashes. The whisky is bottled at 49.4% ABV and is non-chill filtered.
One of Scotland's most famous distilleries, Ardbeg is located on the isle of Islay, off the rugged west coast of Scotland. Founded in the early 1800s by John McDougall, the distillery has long been renowned for the heavily peaty spirits that flows from its stills. Ardbeg fell silent for eight years in the 1980s and distillation ceased. It was closed again the mid-1990s shortly before it was acquired by Glenmorangie, who restored the distillery to its former glory.
The distillery maintains around four core expressions, including the highly acclaimed Uigeadail, and regularly releases a number of themed limited editions as part of their committee release series and the annual "Ardbeg Day" celebrations.
