Ardbeg Hypernova
This whisky from Ardbeg has phenol levels of 170 parts per million, making it the brand's smokeiest to date (ppm).
This release joins a long series of Ardbeg Committee Whiskies, including Scorch—a single malt matured in intensely burnt bourbon barrels—the cask-strength Blaaack, which was completed in New Zealand pinot noir casks, and Fermutation, the longest-fermented whisky in Ardbeg's history. Although some Committee releases are eventually made public, Hypernova will always be a Committee exclusive. Since membership is free and open to everyone, it's a low-risk endeavor.
