Ardbeg Traigh Bhan 19 Year Old Single Malt Whisky Batch 3 Lockdown 700mL
Ardbeg Traigh Bhan 19 Year Old Single Malt Whisky Batch 3 Bottled in Lockdown - Yes prices keep going up with every batch - not our fault...
Named after Islay’s Traigh Bhan beach, known locally as the Singing Sands, the whisky will be available in limited batches produced on an annual basis. This is the sought-after batch 3 that notes on the bottle and the box that it was "bottled in lockdown". What a great collector's item!
Note The whisky’s recipe is set to change with each batch, creating ‘subtle differences’ between future iterations.
Each batch of Ardbeg Traigh Bhan will feature a unique code on the carton and bottle, which drinkers can enter into the distillery’s website to find out more about the ‘story’ of the whisky. Dr Bill Lumsden, Ardbeg’s director of distilling, whisky creation and whisky stocks, said: ‘A new, permanent aged Ardbeg is a rare occurrence, and cause for celebration. ‘We hope that, by slightly tweaking the batch recipe year-on-year, Ardbeggians can have some fun exploring the finer details of this ever-changing dram.’
The last permanent age-stated expression to join the distillery’s range was Ardbeg 10 Year Old, which was introduced in 2000. Its core range currently features a series of no-age-statement single malts named after geographical features of the distillery’s island home, including Corryvreckan, Uigedail and An Oa, the latter of which was introduced in September 2017.
