Ardbeg Unveils Smokiest Whisky Yet, Ardbeg Hypernova

Ardbeg has unveiled its smokiest whisky yet, Ardbeg Hypernova. The new offering joins the recently revealed Ardbeg Fermutation as a Committee Release.

“Proper your palate at full force towards the smokiest dram ever to mature into existence at Ardbeg,” says the front label. “Discover fabric-tearingly intense notes of tar, creosote and soot. Venture further into the glass and explore ethereal whispers of aniseed, smoke and dark chocolate.”

The back of the label continues, “Possibly the smokiest dram in the world (this one at least), Hypernova possesses a malty magnitude never before experienced. This is a brutally smoky dram that radiates flavour in every direction. Undoubtedly Ardbeg’s smokiest spirit, HN22 is a cataclysmic event for the Distillery. It’s big, it’s intense and it’s pulling palates into a whole new dimension…

“Explore notes of pungent peat smoke, aniseed and toasted lavender, while bitter almonds and dark chocolates fuse with curious hints of plasticine and burnt rubber. Descend into a finish that collapses in on itself, before returning to earthy notes of roasted coffee and smoky heather.”

All we really know about the Scotch for now is that its bottled at 51% ABV and will be the release for Ardbeg Day 2022.

As a Committee-only bottling, it is only available to members of The Ardbeg Committee. Those interested can join The Committee via the official website. Membership is free and all Ardbeg fans are welcome.

Last year, we sat down with Cameron George, Ardbeg’s US Brand Ambassador, and he took us through everything one could possibly need to enjoy National Scotch Day. Last April, Ardbeg unveiled its 2021 limited edition Scotch whisky bottling made specifically for the Fèis Ìle festival, Scorch.
