Ardbeg auriverdes - it's a dram of two halves

Dear Committee Member



The Ardbeg Distillery is on top form this season with the debut of Ardbeg Auriverdes. The newest bottling in the line up - launching on 31st May - is a product of the skill and passion the team here at Ardbeg is famous for.



Distilled with equal measures of both, Ardbeg Auriverdes - nick-named after its golden whisky (auri), and unmistakable green bottle (verde) - is destined to be the star of Ardbeg Day 2014.



The talented newcomer is rumoured to be a bit of hot head, on account of its toasted cask lids. However, I am confident that its creamy vanilla sweetness will tame its darker mocha coffee side.



He shoots, He pours! Making the ultimate whisky is a beautiful game. And so is 'Peat Football', the centrepiece of Ardbeg Day 2014. As the Islay community knows, 'Peat Football' is much more demanding than regular soccer, on account of the tendency to get bogged down in the tricky playing surface.



In the run up to Ardbeg Day - and in our auspicious capacity as official sponsors of the Swamp Soccer World Cup 2014 - we'll be hosting 'Peat Football' events around the globe. So check our fixture list in the coming weeks at ardbeg.com to find out what’s happening at an event near you. I know I can rely on you, the fans, to get behind Ardbeg Auriverdes. And with support as loyal as the Ardbeg Committee, this one's bound to be a winner, especially at home this season. We'll be back in touch soon to let you know how to get hold of this world-class bottling.





Slainte!
