Description
Ardbeg 1994 15 Year Old from the Authentic Collection was bottled by Cadenhead’s and represents an independent snapshot of the distillery before its modern revival. Distilled in 1994 and matured for fifteen years, this whisky comes from a period when Ardbeg’s production was inconsistent and far removed from today’s polished style. The peat smoke is present but restrained, allowing coastal notes, citrus peel and a mineral edge to take the lead. Oak influence is modest and supportive, giving structure without heaviness. As part of Cadenhead’s Authentic Collection, this bottling was released with a focus on transparency and character, offering a clear and honest expression of Ardbeg as it was in the mid nineteen nineties.
