That's why Ardbeg BizarreBQ consists of double-charred oak barrels, Pedro Ximénez sherry barrels and the specially invented BBQ barrels, which were extra-highly charred on a traditional fire basket. This barrel combination ensures a deliciously sweet, spicy and smoky taste that goes perfectly with any barbecue.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 20px;\"\u003eTasting Notes \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eNose : Peaty with aromas of charcoal, soot, nutty smoked hams, braised meats.

The distillery is owned by Louis Vuitton Moët Hennessy, and produces a heavily peated Islay whisky. The distillery uses malted barley sourced from the maltings in Port Ellen.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Ardbeg distillery was officially founded in 1815 by John McDougall. But Whisky was distilled there long before that. There are no documentations, as Ardbeg was an illegal business back in 1794. The distillery is now owned by LVMH (Louis Vuitton Moet Hennessy), which also owns Glenmorangie distillery in the Highlands of Scotland. The current capacity is just over one million litres per annum and its water source is Loch Uigeadail, after which one of its famous releases is named.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e50.9% ABV\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e70cl\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ardbeg","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52784937599314,"sku":"5010494982831","price":135.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1052\/9737\/9666\/files\/4128975239.jpg?v=1771930819","url":"https:\/\/whiskysituation.co.uk\/products\/ardbeg-bizarrebq-2023-70cl","provider":"Whisky Situation","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
