Ardbeg "Anamorphic - Committee Release" Islay Single Malt Whisky (750ml)
Review Date: 12/2023
Tessellations of flavor abound in this exceptional release from Ardbeg. The heads of the barrels were deeply grooved and heavily toasted before being put back on the barrels for this batch. The end result is a more chocolatey profile that bolsters the sweet smoky, herbal and spicy components of Ardbeg. The nose is a sultry mix of succulent beef burnt ends, roasted apple skins, maple and brown sugar oatmeal, sea salt, bruised pears, and pure peat smoke. The palate is beautifully sweet. Tons of golden malt and waxy candy corns mixed with sea spray, kelp, and vanilla pod. Coffee pod and cocoa nib come through on the finish. It's a big hit from Ardbeg and surely a malt that will keep you coming back to it for new notes over and over again.

Notes
Ardbeg “Anamorphic – Committee Release” I is a limited-edition Islay single malt bottled at 48.2% ABV. It features a unique “high mocha” cask toasting process with deeply scored bourbon barrels, producing a non-age-stated whisky that shifts between sweet, smoky, herbal, and spicy profiles. Ardbeg's Notes: Color: Amber. Cask: Innovative Cask charring technique. Nose: Earthy, dusty, and biscuity on the nose, this is a most curious Ardbeg, almost from an alternative universe. The sooty/tarry notes are clear but restrained, and balanced by silky vanilla. Taste: Peppery and warming, preceding an explosion of fiery, spicy flavors: Chili chocolate, bittersweet mocha, briar wood, birch tar, black pepper and smoked artichokes. The tarry notes build to a crescendo of rich, smoky flavors, with an incredible, lingering aftertaste of charcoal almonds and molasses.
