Hi , Yes Ardbeg 17yo is coming to an end , but a replacement is on it's way , if you got the committee news letter it was mentioned in there .The Ardbeg Uigeadail is released next month .It's caskstrength (over 54%) and consists of 90% bourbon casks and 10% sherry casks . It tastes very much like a re-fill sherry and IMO i would place it's taste somewhere between the current 10 and 17yo , for a caskstrength it is very smooth and goes down rather well ! Slainté Gordon
