As we celebrate 25 years of the Ardbeg Committee in 2025, we venture further into space once more… Behold the immense magnetism of Ardbeg’s mash tun. Responsible for converting our malted barley into fermentable sugars (mashing), all life at Ardbeg revolves around the tun. This time, however, it has become a force to be reckoned with, as we concentrate its power to materialise a new frontier of flavour for Ardbeg.
INTENSITY OF DENSITY
Introducing this year’s exclusive – Ardbeg Smokiverse. Crafted with High Gravity Mashing (a genuine distilling term!), this experimental malt takes us on a voyage into new, undiscovered realms of flavour. By experimenting with High Gravity Mashing, we’ve dialled down the water, cranked up the grist, and packed more grain into the mix than ever before. This process ramps up the sugar in the wort, resulting in a higher gravity measurement than our standard mash. It’s this heightened gravity that has helped unlock this fruitier, more intense Ardbeg.
TUNS OF FLAVOUR
Taste the emergence of an awe inspiringly fruity Ardbeg. Notes of muscovado sugar swirl alongside searing aromas of ripening barley and toasted sourdough bread, while sweet peat smoke orbits ripe tropical fruits. Plunge your palate into a crushing mouthfeel that implodes in on itself with intensely rich, creamy flavours.
Smokiverse will be rolling out globally over the next couple of months.
