Other Products ｜Ardbeg Heavy Vapours 2023 Committee Release Single Malt Scotch

Heavy Vapours is Ardbeg distilled without its purifier — the copper pipe that normally sends the heaviest vapors back into the still is removed, so everything the distillery usually keeps out comes through — the Ardbeg Day 2023 release, and this is the Committee version at 50.2%. Ardbeg has distilled on Islay's Kildalton coast since 1815 and was rescued by Glenmorangie in 1997 — LVMH owns both now — with Dr. Bill Lumsden directing the whisky; the purifier on the spirit still is why 55-ppm Ardbeg tastes clean and citric, and Heavy Vapours is the experiment of switching it off. It's ex-bourbon-matured Ardbeg from purifier-less runs, bottled at 50.2% for the Committee (46% for general release), non-chill-filtered. Dramface: darker, heavier, more disrupted than any Ardbeg in years — ash, lemon, liquorice, and a rawness the purifier usually polishes off. More Drams, Less Drama scored it 5 out of 10 for the same reasons Ardbeg fans love it: young, harsh, uncompromising. Expect a thick, oily, sooty Ardbeg — tar, aniseed, burnt lemon, wet ash — with the fruit pushed to the back. Honest note: the most divisive Ardbeg Day release and the most interesting — a lesson in what one piece of copper does; for the Ardbeg completist and the drinker who thinks the Ten is too polite.
