About
Introducing the second legendary edition in the Ardbeg Anthology Collection. Matured for 14 years in a marriage of aromatic Madeira and classic bourbon casks, this rare Ardbeg is inspired by the tale of the lesser-spotted Islay Unicorn.
Introducing the second legendary release in the Ardbeg Anthology Collection. Aged 14 years in aromatic Madeira and classic bourbon casks, this rare expression is inspired by the myth of the elusive Islay Unicorn.
One moonlit night, hooves echoed through the distillery yard. Some blamed Rory, the mischievous Shetland pony with a sweet tooth. Others swore they saw a horned creature silhouetted against the moon, a Unicorn.
Rumours flew the next day, but the mystery endures. Like the legend, this whisky appears sweet but hides a smoky, sinister twist.
