Wine Enthusiast 100 Best Spirits of 2021

#6 Whisky Advocate Top 20 Whiskies of 2020

Ardbeg's Wee Beastie Single Malt Scotch Whisky has a bright, auric appearance. The aromas are very bright, fresh and herbal, with hints of vanilla, pear, freshly cracked black pepper, and honey glazed ham. There are additional notes of rich Turkish coffee and sappy pine resin. A rich, explosive mouthfeel with lots of chocolate, tar, creosote and smoked bacon, followed by a burst of antiseptic lozenges, eucalyptus and more aniseed. A long, salty and mouth coating finish with hints of cocoa, fudge and savory meats.
