Ardbeg Grooves

Ardbeg Grooves

A limited edition Islay single malt from Ardbeg Distillery, released as part of the distillery’s annual special bottlings.

Ardbeg Grooves is notable for its maturation in heavily charred red wine casks, which contribute distinctive dark fruit richness and spice alongside Ardbeg’s trademark peat smoke.

Now discontinued, Grooves has become increasingly sought after by collectors and Ardbeg enthusiasts.

Why you’ll love it

Ardbeg Grooves delivers classic Ardbeg smoke with a darker, richer twist.

Expect bold peat smoke, smoked meats and espresso layered with red berries, dark chocolate and charred oak spice. The heavily toasted red wine casks bring extra depth and a slightly jammy sweetness that complements the maritime Islay character.

It’s powerful, layered and unmistakably Ardbeg — with a unique cask influence.
