"This limited edition is an extraordinary collaboration between our Master Whisker Maker, Bob Dalgarno and Master Perfumer, Roja Dove" Thumbs up.
309 ppm peat phenols, making it the "most heavily-peated Octomore to date." Matured "in 56% first fill Bourbon casks, the remaining in ex-Paulliac, Ventoux, Rhone and Burgundy casks." "A thunderstorm of a dram." Great!!!
Made from a vatting of "whiskies from several cask types - including; sweet Pedro Ximenez; spicy virgin charred oak; and intense ex-bourbon casks, amongst others." The Mull of Oa is the southern-most point of Islay.
Finished in first fill Bourbon barrels then in Pedro Ximenez sherry casks.
Named after the Highland Park founder. "Matured in Sherry seasoned American oak casks."
Aged in ex-Bourbon casks. Allied Domecq owned Ardbeg in 1993 and 1994 when this was distilled and only operated the distillery a few weeks every year producing peated malt whisky primarily for blending use.
Experimental Series #2, Project Twenty. A vatting from 17 bourbon barrels, 2 sherry butts and 1 port pipe selected by 20 whisky experts from around the world.
Peated to 30 ppm from Highland peat and matured using only American oak.
Distilled 2002, bottled 2012. Matured in ex-Bourbon barrels.

"The first expression released from Glenglassaugh distillery after being mothballed for more than 20 years. (It's) been matured in a balanced mix of ex-red wine and fresh bourbon casks, vatted and re-racked for double maturation in rich sherry casks."
"This vibrant evocation of Dufftown’s fruity character bursts with notes of fresh red berries and sweet vanilla aromas thanks to the influence of European oak casks"
Pronounced 'Port Ree.' "Finished in port casks"
"Only five pairs of trusted hands are used to make our whisky" (rear label)
Sounds like "Ben doo" - Gaelic for "Black Mountain." Charred port wine casks produce the dark “ruby black” color. Bottle 782 of 10,000 celebrating the 20th anniversary of the largest Harley-Davidson rally in the UK, Aviemore 2016.
