Ardbeg distillery, known for its distinctive Islay whiskies, ventures into new territory with an exciting collaboration between Dr. Bill Lumsden and DJ BBQ, also known as Christian Stevenson. Together, they have crafted a unique barbecue-inspired single malt that promises to tantalize the taste buds.

To achieve the desired meaty, smoky, and barbecue sauce-like profile, the duo carefully blended whisky from three distinct cask types. These include double charred oak casks, toasted Pedro Ximénez sherry casks, and specially crafted barbecue casks. The barbecue casks were heavily charred using a traditional brazier, resulting in a remarkable infusion of intense smoky flavors.

The result of this collaboration is a whisky that perfectly complements all things barbecued. Prepare to indulge in the delicious marriage of flavors, as the whisky captures the essence of a smoky barbecue experience. Whether paired with grilled meats or enjoyed on its own, this unique creation promises to be an exceptional whisky adventure.

This innovative release showcases Ardbeg’s commitment to pushing boundaries and exploring new horizons. It offers whisky enthusiasts a captivating and memorable journey, combining the artistry of whisky-making with the flavorful delights of a barbecue feast.
