Ardbeg Anthology 'The Unicorn's Tale' 14 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky 750ml

Product Description

The Unicorn's Tale Matured in a marriage of aromatic Madeira casks and classic Ardbeg ex-bourbon casks, powerful smoke and zesty notes of lime canter across the palate. Soft barley and burning cedarwood lurk in the distance, while menthol, clove and camphor come together in a whimsically smoky finish. Never let neighsayers get in the way of a good story... Islay is home to all manner of fearsome creatures, from shapeshifting Selkies to man-eating Beists, and even thieving Harpies. But one legend grips the island's imagination more than most... On a dark night after a fete 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 Distillery's 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 Scotland's national animal... a Unicorn. Now of course, questions about a raided ice cream truck, Rory's 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... Whisky matured in a marriage of aromatic Madeira casks and classic Ardbeg ex-bourbon casks, this malt has been bottled in tribute to the fabled Islay Unicorn. This legendary edition is the second in Ardbeg Anthology Collection.
