For the Ardbeg Smoketrails Napa Valley Edition, Ardbeg takes its Smoketrails adventure to California. Whisky aged in Cabernet Sauvignon casks from the famous Napa Valley is blended with Ardbeg from traditional bourbon casks. This unique combination creates a complex interplay of wine-like fruit, deep smoke, and fresh, spicy accents.

On the nose, intense floral aromas combine with rich smoke and a refreshing touch of menthol. Next, dark, smoked plums, jasmine, and the savory warmth of freshly baked rye bread appear. As the whisky opens up further, earthy and robust nuances of truffle and tar-like rope emerge.

The taste becomes even richer with notes of powerful espresso and old leather, while eucalyptus and camphor provide a surprisingly fresh counterpoint. The Cabernet Sauvignon casks lend this typically smoky Islay whisky an extra fruity and aromatic dimension, without losing sight of the distinct Ardbeg character.

An adventurous single malt for lovers of smoky, layered whiskies who enjoy discovering what happens when Islay and Napa Valley meet.
