The Ardbeg committee commenced on the 1st of January, 2000 as a free to join membership for fans to keep up to date with all the latest news and activities from the distillery. Exclusive annual bottlings were also one of the perks of membership, yielding highly revered bottlings such as the original 'Kildalton', 'Serendipity' and 'Rollercoaster'.  Over the years these bottling’s have become highly sought after in the collectors market.

Released on the 7th February, 2012 Ardbeg day was released for Feis Ile 2012 but considered a Committee release, selected from and married in refill sherry casks previously used for Uigeadail.  Bottled at 56.7% ABV.

Other reviews...  On first sweep i thought it was pretty ordinary, but i know this distillery a little too well. So I left the glass for 20 minutes to breathe and compose itself and returned, to find a potential world whisky of the year. 97 points
