The Ardbeg 17 Year Old Committee Exclusive is a historic revival, a tribute to the single malt that helped define the modern era of the Ardbeg Distillery. First released in 1997 following the distillery's resurrection, this bottling quickly became a beloved classic for its unusual balance of refined elegance and subtle Ardbeg smoke.

This limited-edition release meticulously recreates the original, non-chill filtered and bottled at 40% ABV, honouring the style of the cherished inaugural expression. Aged for 17 years in ex-Bourbon barrels, the extended maturation has mellowed the iconic peat smoke, allowing a delicate and complex layering of coastal, medicinal, and sweet malt notes to shine through.

This is an Ardbeg for the connoisseur—a fleeting taste of history that is at once classic Islay and unexpectedly gentle.
