Ardbeg “Eureka” Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky

$89

ABOUT

Buckle up, whisky lovers—Ardbeg Eureka hits the scene like a smoky gale tearing across Islay’s rugged shores. Crafted to celebrate 25 years of the Ardbeg Committee, this limited-edition single malt fuses the distillery’s signature peat-driven audacity with a daring twist. Born from a clandestine experiment dubbed Operation Smokescreen, it marries roasted malt spirit aged in bourbon casks with a sultry splash matured in Pedro Ximénez sherry casks. The result? A dram that’s as bold as a bonfire and as intricate as a whispered secret. At 52.2% ABV, it’s bottled at a punchy 104.4 proof—perfect for savoring neat or taming with a drop of water to unleash its hidden depths. Hailing from Scotland’s wild Islay region, this isn’t just whisky; it’s a sensory voyage. Can you handle the smoke? Dive in and find out.

TASTING NOTES

Nose: Juicy red apples burst forth, mingling with plump cherries. Signature smoke swirls like a coastal fog, laced with fresh coffee granules and a briny hint of salted seaweed.

Palate: Nut toffee brittle explodes on the tongue, chased by raisin fudge and dark fruits. Peat smoke dances with burnt embers, while sweet cinnamon and chocolate-coated raisins add luscious depth.

Finish: It’s long and chewy—sweet treacle toffee lingers, fading into aniseed spice and glowing embers that refuse to quit.

FOOD PAIRING

Craving a match made in heaven? Pair this smoky titan with grilled oysters drizzled in herb butter—the brine echoes its sea-kissed soul. Dark chocolate truffles amplify its raisin fudge vibes, pure decadence in every bite. For a hearty twist, try it with slow-roasted lamb shoulder; the peat cuts through the richness like a Highland breeze. Want something unexpected? Blue cheese brings a funky contrast that’ll spark your senses.
