Ardbeg Alligator - For Discussion
Subtitle (S1)
Image
Bottled for the Ardbeg Committee, this was released in June 2011. Ardbeg Alligator takes its name from the aggressive charring of the American oak casks the whisky was matured in. This charring level is known as the Alligator char because the cracking of the wood under the heat looks similar to the skin of the eponymous reptile.
