Experience untamed Islay character in micro-batch form with Ardbeg 10 Year Old – 1998 Vintage, Single Cask #368. Filled into a first-fill ex-bourbon barrel on 17 March 1998 and left to mature in Ardbeg’s seaside warehouses, the spirit was bottled—at natural cask strength—in March 2010. Every one of the 240 individually numbered bottles bears the distillery manager’s hand-signature, capturing Ardbeg’s hallmark tarry smoke wrapped in vanilla cream, toasted coconut and zesty citrus at peak ten-year vibrancy.

Why We Think You’ll Love It

  • Strictly 240 bottles, each hand-signed by the distillery manager—an essential collectible for Ardbeg aficionados.

Tasting Notes

Nose Billows of kiln smoke and sea-spray weave through lime zest, vanilla pod, toasted marshmallow and a wisp of medicinal peat. Palate An explosive rush of charcoal embers, briny toffee and liquorice root floods the tongue, followed by creamy vanilla fudge, cracked black pepper and a bright flash of grapefruit peel. Finish Long, smouldering and gently dry—lingering camp-fire ash, salted caramel and a final flourish of charred-oak spice.
