Ardbeg Almost There (2007) 70cl

Ardbeg Almost There (2007) 70cl

The penultimate part in the Young series from Ardbeg, spanning the development of Ardbeg, from Very Young, all the way up to 10 years. This was distilled in 1998, and offers lots of complexity and a unique look into the maturation of Ardbeg single malt.

This promising Ardbeg, first released in 2004, is now released another year older, as we follow the path to Ardbeg 10 years old. 'Almost There' has developed robustly, with more rounded and full-flavoured Ardbeg characteristics.

The path to maturity 1998 - 2008

Since the distillery re-opened in 1997, many enthusiasts of Ardbeg have been keen to sample our work in progress - none more so than the worldwide aficionados of the Ardbeg Committee. It was to them that we released a limited bottling of 'Very Young' Ardbeg for discussion and comment. 'Still Young' Ardbeg was bottled in 2006 and 'Almost There' Ardbeg is now the third and final limited release along the peaty road to full maturity.
