Ardbeg Anthology The Unicorn’s Tale 14 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky

Ardbeg Anthology The Unicorn’s Tale 14 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky

Introducing the second legendary edition in the Ardbeg Anthology Collection. Matured for 14 years in a marriage of aromatic Madeira and classic bourbon casks, this rare Ardbeg is inspired by the tale of the lesser-spotted Islay Unicorn.

One dark night after a fte at the Distillery, the clip-clop of hooves was heard echoing around the yard. Those less swayed by mythical tales will tell you it was Rory, the Distillerys greedy Shetland Pony known for his ill-temper and devilishly sweet tooth. Others believe something else was afoot.

Distillery workers ventured outside to investigate. Rounding the corner, they witnessed a horse-like creature rearing up against a full moon. A horn protruding from its head, it cut a chilling silhouette. The next day, rumours swirled about a sighting of Scotlands national animal a Unicorn.

Now of course, questions about a raided ice cream truck, Rorys unlatched gate, and a strangely wafery-looking horn were levelled at the workers. But they know what they saw! Sure, a greedy-guts pony is plausible, but Islay is a mysterious place.

Like the myth itself, this spirit may appear sweet in nature, but it hides a sinister and smoky twist not to be underestimated.

The Unicorns Tale is non-chill filtered at 46%.
