De fameuze Ardbeg whisky distilleerderij – tweemaal winnaar van de felbegeerde World Whisky of The Year titel, heeft de nieuwe release Corryvreckan op de markt gebracht. Een Islay whisky, geïnspireerd door de beroemde Corryvreckan een van ’s werelds grootste “maalstroom” (water met enorme draaikolken). Gelegen tusen de eilanden van Jura en een rots eilandje Scarba bij Islay. Dit water is door de Royal Navy als een van de gevaarlijkste stukken water van de Britse eilanden gekenmerkt. Men kan de Corryvreckan “whirlpool” reeds op een afstand van 10 mijl horen. De legende van Corryvreckan luidt als volgt. In de tijd dat de Vikingen nog de handelsroutes langs Groot-Brittannië beheersten, raakte de Noorse koning Vrechan verliefd op een prinses van Scarba. Vader zag zo'n sterke koning met goed bewapende mannen wel zitten, maar tante moeide zich ermee en verwees hem door naar een wijze vrouw. “Om jezelf te bewijzen, moet je het drie dagen met je boot in de ketel - de maalstroom tussen de twee eilanden - zien vol te houden'', oordeelde de wijze vrouw. Vrechan kreeg drie ankers mee, waarvan een gevlochten uit sterk maagdenhaar. Op de derde dag lag de Noorse koning nog vast met het maagdentouw, maar dan brak het. De wijze vrouw had er immers haar eigen grijze, zwakke haar in gevlochten. Enkele dagen later spoelde het lijk van Vrechan aan op Scarba, maar zijn trouwe hond versleepte het naar Jura, waar hij begraven zou liggen in een grot. Sindsdien heet de maalstroom de Golf van Corryvreckan. Het eiland Islay ligt ten zuid westen van Schotland. De distilleerderij Ardbeg ligt aan de zuidkust van Islay, van de plaats Port Askaig via Bowmore en Port Ellen en daarna naar Ardbeg distilleerderij.

Сложный и мощный торфяной виски с преобладанием дымных, морских и пряных нот, дополненных сладостью и фруктовыми акцентами. Большинство ревьюеров хвалят его за глубину и баланс, хотя встречаются мнения о резкости спиртов и излишней горечи.
развернуть подробно
Ароматический профиль напитка раскрывается плотным маслянистым торфом, морскими оттенками соли, йода и водорослей, а также выраженными тонами кожи, древесного угля и смолы. В аромате и вкусе отчетливо звучат цитрусовые ноты лимона и апельсиновой цедры, темный шоколад, карамель, мед и пряности вроде перца и имбиря. Некоторые версии демонстрируют влияние бочек из-под хереса или вина, добавляя в профиль сухофрукты, вишню и темные ягоды. Вкус маслянистый, насыщенный и взрывной, с доминированием торфяного дыма, золы, дуба и солодовых нюансов. Послевкусие долгое, согревающее, в нем переплетаются дымные, соленые, пряные и землистые оттенки с легким фруктовым следом. Авторы отзывов высоко ценят этот виски за многогранность, маслянистую текстуру и превосходный баланс между мощной торфяной основой и сладостью. Особое признание получили специальные издания, которые многие ревьюеры ставят выше современных регулярных розливов за большую глубину и сложность. Критические замечания касаются редких проявлений спиртуозности, горечи жженого дуба и избыточной сухости, причем часть авторов отмечает, что добавление воды может негативно влиять на выразительность аромата и вкуса. Оценки в целом высокие и стабильные, большинство сходится во мнении о высоком качестве релиза.

This Ardbeg does not have any extreme notes - it's a little bit of everything which makes it very well balanced and very good.
lincolnimp8806 nov 2015 12:28 am
WITH WATER Both nose and palate are much less expressive it is better neat. I am not a lover of Ardbeg but this is good stuff and I think the sweetness works well.

This Corryvreckan and modern it's like Heaven and Earth! It's not just whisky, it's really delicious, maybe the aging time in the bottle added something, but I think they made whisky differently at Ardbeg back then! 22 23 22+ 22+ 90

Sweeter than Corryvreckan, with much better balance. Real Ardbeg style.

Wow, this is a top class Corryvreckan, you really gave it your all for the release. Here I can understand that everything was better in the past, he puts a shovel on it compared to the current Corry!

I didn't really know what to expect from this Ardbeg, and it's frankly successful. The balance is quite exemplary, with oily peat, but also a whole panoply of fruity, honeyed and spicy aromas.

What a blast from the past. I remember Corryvreckan made me fall in love with it the first time I tried it, but bottles from more recent times have not impressed me. This Committee version does, however. It starts off with some dry sherry oak that feels like the casks weren't just any old thing. Following that you'll get some bold peaty notes and a filling taste with chocolate, cherries, oven soot, and a bit of salt. The finish is delightful. I had no wish to go find a more contemporary Corry sample to compare this to... Thanks to member MacAlterWhisky for the sample!

This edition is really very nice. I have not been a fan of Islays and honestly I don`t like the brine or tar in most. I do enjoy the smoke and oak and spice. Ardbeg I can see why it is popular because there is allot going on and I am starting to come around to at least be selective to what I have of the Ardbeg collection. This one is very nice and one for the collection.

http://www.weinkenner.de/2014/ardbeg-corryvreckan-committee-release-vs-standard-34031/ Color: gold Nose: Salty-maritime, seaweed, citric acid, coal, ash, iodine and malty peat. Here, too, caramel, butter and kräutrige fish soup with Chinagras. Taste: Explosive and full of flavor! Slightly crisp, spicy lemon, chili peppers, lots of spice, which is very salty. Caramel sweets, tar, peat, smoke, wet charcoal and stale wood. Finish: Long - with lots of smoke and peat, coal, pepper, humus and wet soil - all but not dry! Lime juice, ginger and avocados. After decaying tartness remains rather a fruity side. 89 points (nose: 88 / taste: 89 / finish: 89)

Yes. This is Ardbeg. I'm not too fond of recent Ardbeg day bottlings (didn't try Kelpie yet) but this is what I liked in Ardbeg when I discovered it not so long ago. This Corry Committee is pure Ardbeg. Not old style Ardbeg, not the most complex one but tasty and simply excellent. Tasting notes from july 2017.
stf_929111 dec 2022 10:56 am
Boosted Classic Corryvreckan! It's different from the old Ardbeg but it does the job remarkably well. Peat, smoke, fruit, spice and slightly oily. Outstanding !
SirToby7916 jul 2023 4:38 pm
Color - dark amber to dark gold; Nose - strongly peaty, grain, somewhat bitter (orange), chocolate, phenolic-alcoholic, very strong; Taste - peaty to charcoal, heavy and buttery, slightly fruity, peppery; Finish - long, pleasant, warm, salty

Nice fruity nose, peat is quite strong, but not dominant. Fresh, earthy. There is a bit of oak bitterness in the taste, sourness, but still ripe fruit and earth/ash dominate. Qualitatively different from modern curry for the better

A very beautiful Ardbeg. The nose of the SMOS 7yo at first seemed superior, but the aeration really played in favor of the Corrywreckan. The blend was perfectly made, combining the passion of youth with the complexity of old Islays malts. The mouth is really the highlight of this whisky that goes perfectly water despite its 57.1%.

Corryvreckan is still part of the Core Ardbeg range which also includes Uigedail & Ardbeg 10year. While most lean towards 'ugie' as their fave, this is mine. The Committee Reserve bottling at cask strength is also a superior quality whisky with more depth and dimensions than the filtered core range bottling. It was introduced in 2008 and was a replacement for the excellent 'Airigh Nam Beist'. The Beist bottlings were from 1990 & were from casks matured between 16-18years. Corryvreckan however its believed to be from 12 year Burgundy casks and virgin American oak casks perhaps 3-6years old. Normally this kind of cask maturation with scotch turns out poor to average but for whatever reason with Ardbeg it just works very well. The red wine casks are harmonious with the Ardbeg peated malt. In the late 90s and early Naughties a lot of scotch distilleries were experimenting with wine cask maturation, however it is far less fashionable now with quality Ex Bourbon & Sherry first fill casks still being the premium choice for maturation. Having said that, #Springbank released a 12 year burgundy cask earlier this year which was excellent!. Nose: old motorcycle smoke. Soft new leather. Coal tar. Oysters and walnuts. Palate: Early grey tea. Buckshot. Black Cherry, raspberry, 80% Noir cacao, bacon, Aged Demerara rum, olives, cinnamon & star anise.

What is the difference to the normal Corryvreckan? In its width: Thick mouthfeel of peat, caramel and herb. Completely.
Gregers9320 dec 2021 1:29 am
One of the best surprises I've had in a long time. The standard Corryvreckan isn't something special to me, but this one definitely is. Review: https://youtu.be/hVXYd4iEJn0

Much different with the normal batch. I think this is what "corryvreckan" should be, well made structure, balanced with deep complex, but you feel comfitable with every changing in the mouth. Great one.But also pricy.
DrFreeEnergy8906 feb 2023 5:11 am
A bright spot of an Ardbeg OB at a time when they were clearly beginning to descend in quality. This by itself makes no attempt to replicate the old style of Ardbeg, this is its own thing and much more peppery than most previous Ardbegs except for Ardbeg Day. Fun to drink, the first general release Corryvreckan for the US market was in the same vein as this stylistically but marginally better.

The limited Committee Reserve bottling of Ardbeg`s popular whirlpool inspired dram. A special edition produced for The Ardbeg Committee in 2008 before it was repackaged for sale to the general public.
DrBest9923 feb 2023 8:27 am
Like the good old days of Ardbeg, bottled at cask strength. Maritime notes with lemon, with charcoal and ash on the finish. By far my absolute favorite of the annual bottlings of the last 20 years. This bottle is really something special, a drop you won't forget. Very, very tasty and incredibly complex.
darren918jp9305 oct 2013 7:28 pm
I generally prefer Port Ellen among the Islay distilleries, but this bottling of Ardbeg strikes a balance between sea and sherry that is admirable, and its praises deserve recanting here. At full strength, both the iodine and brine are prominent on the nose at first, then gently enveloped in sherry shrouded smoke, with the heat of the alcohol eventually catching up and threatening to obliterate your nostrils, which entices one to take a sip of this liquid permutation of the senses. The palate is complex and well balanced, with various dried fruits and nut, predominately white figs, walnuts, macadamia and coconut,  and some bitter chocolate, too.  The finish is peppery and somewhat tongue numbing at full strength, which is a testimony to the intensity of flavors. With water, the sea becomes a bit calmer and some of the complexity is lost, but the distance becomes more discernible between the waves. In fact, the sherry wells up into a surge mid palate, crashing into a briny foam on the shore.

If the price for this masterpiece would be 200eur, wouldn't drink any other whisky. Imagine the corry of 2015-2017 but buffed in all possible ways. Full of taste. Relatively balanced. Huge abv, huge peat, but that doesn't ruin or overflow the taste (unlike recent years corry, which is still one of my favourite
