Ardbeg An Oa Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Ardbeg An Oa Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky
As an Islay single malt Scotch whisky, Ardbeg An Oa stands apart through its use of several cask types. It draws on whisky matured in Pedro Ximénez, virgin charred oak, and ex-bourbon casks. Those components are then brought together in a French oak Gathering Vat before bottling.
Smoked applewood sits beside creamy toffee, setting a savory note against rounded sweetness. Aniseed brings a firm aromatic edge, while black pepper adds a dry spark toward the close. The flavors offer a straightforward contrast of sweetness, spice, and smoke.
Bottled at 93.2 proof (46.6% ABV), this Scotch has the strength to keep those contrasting notes clearly defined. It comes in a 750 mL size and works well served neat or over a large cube.
