Ardbeg Smoke Trails 1L is a limited-edition Islay single malt Scotch whisky that explores the influence of unique cask maturations on Ardbeg’s iconic smoky character. This travel retail exclusive expression combines whisky matured in classic American oak casks with spirit finished in specially selected casks, creating an intriguing balance of intense peat smoke and distinctive cask-derived flavours. Bottled at 46% ABV and non-chill filtered, it delivers the bold, complex character that Ardbeg enthusiasts have come to expect.

The nose opens with rich aromas of tar, sea spray, pine resin, dark chocolate, and roasted nuts, layered with hints of herbal freshness and smoky peat. On the palate, powerful flavours of peat smoke, soot, toasted hazelnuts, dark chocolate, liquorice, and warming spice unfold with a creamy, slightly drying mouthfeel. The finish is long, smoky, and lingering with notes of aniseed, oak, leather, and gentle maritime salinity. Ardbeg Smoke Trails is best enjoyed neat or with a splash of water to reveal its full depth and complexity.
