First launched in 2003, Ardbeg Uigeadail pays homage to the legendary distillery's water source—Loch Uigeadail. In Gaelic, the name means 'a mysterious, dark place'. The brilliance of this whisky lies in its blending technique, combining spirits matured in different cask types: Islay's classic peaty charm from Bourbon casks meets the rich fruit and spice of aged Sherry cask whisky.
This union produces an unprecedented harmony—the intensity of the peat is softened by the sweetness of the Sherry casks without losing its wild edge. The 54.2% ABV cask strength preserves the most original and concentrated flavor. For seasoned collectors, Ardbeg Uigeadail is more than a bottle; it is a historical snapshot of Islay land and traditional distilling craft.
Situated on the rugged south coast of Islay, Ardbeg is famous for its 'phenomenal paradox'—possessing both the heaviest peat smoke and an alluring floral sweetness. Uigeadail is the pinnacle of this style. Sipping this whisky feels like standing on the sea-swept shores of Islay, feeling the warmth and power from the depths of the earth. Its complexity makes it the perfect partner for dark chocolate or heavy grilled dishes, and an essential member of any connoisseur's cellar.
