Ardbeg “Eureka” Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky

Buckle up, whisky lovers—Ardbeg Eureka hits the scene like a smoky gale tearing across Islay’s rugged shores. Crafted to celebrate 25 years of the Ardbeg Committee, this limited-edition single malt fuses the distillery’s signature peat-driven audacity with a daring twist. Born from a clandestine experiment dubbed Operation Smokescreen, it marries roasted malt spirit aged in bourbon casks with a sultry splash matured in Pedro Ximénez sherry casks. The result? A dram that’s as bold as a bonfire and as intricate as a whispered secret. At 52.2% ABV, it’s bottled at a punchy 104.4 proof—perfect for savoring neat or taming with a drop of water to unleash its hidden depths. Hailing from Scotland’s wild Islay region, this isn’t just whisky; it’s a sensory voyage. Can you handle the smoke? Dive in and find out.
