About this deal

Incidentally, the name Grooves comes from the shape in the inside of the wine barrels after they’ve been re-charred. Ardbeg Grooves - Regular Release If we decide not to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms, such decision shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. I’ve not always tasted Ardbeg committee release with the regular release side-by-side, but the main difference tends to be booziness. That tends to be a biting win for me. These two are so similar. I get more wine-notes on the committee release which makes it more fun on the nose, but it’s a little too sharp on the palate. A little too hot. A few drops of water settle the drink, but at that point, you may as well drink the regular release. Palate: Sharp oak spice hit, great levels of char, and the caramels wash-over. The citrus crush is there, closer to blood oranges. The paprika spice is hot hot hot (compared to the regular release, it’s even hotter). Baking spices, but more focused on cinnamon. Pennington plans to make this Four Grain whiskey a regularly available release, although each batch's blend will vary. This first batch used ten barrels. The distillery uses full-size (53-gallon) barrels to age its whiskeys and distills them all in a 500-gallon pot still.

We may, but are not under any obligation, to release new functionalities and tools or other features for the Service every now and then.

Whiskybase B.V. (“Whiskybase”, “we” or “us”, company details below) offers a whisky enthusiasts online platform that provides its members access to the most comprehensive, transparent and trusted resource of whisky bottles and allows and stimulates its members to contribute information about whisky bottles to the platform (“Service”). Ardbeg’s annual releases are highly anticipated among fans. The most popular of recent years, Dark Cove, was much beloved and was turned (unofficially) to a regular release called AN NO. Each year, fans get something different. Each year, there are two releases; the regular releases and the committee release, intended primarily for Ardbeg committee members (an organization that’s free to join). Nothing in the Terms shall exclude or limit our liability for fraudulent misrepresentation or for death or personal injury resulting from gross negligence or willful misconduct by us. Cambridge, Wisconsin's Dancing Goat Distillery has launched its first product, a rye whiskey aged in both "vintage American oak" and new charred French oak barrels, then finished in a solera made of recharred Limousin oak port barrels. This first batch is being bottled at 46% ABV, but future releases may have a different proof as the distillery's goal is to create a certain flavor profile without necessarily being constrained by a target proof.There’s much folklore between why there are two releases. The committee release is certainly boozier by a few percentages of alcohol. It’s also, in some cases, believed to be the more authentic batch of the two that includes more difficult-to-find casks of whisky, where as the regular releases is a higher (but still not high) volume product and thus a little more muted in flavour. Whatever the truth of it is, committee releases are intended to be “more special.” And more expensive. Certainly on the secondary market. Given the name, I was expecting a lysergic experience, but instead I found myself with a healthy hippy smoking seaweed cigarettes. Almost an introductory whisky, which doesn’t want to disturb, even too much peace and quiet, but then again, that’s the name, isn’t it? But from a special and limited edition (and expensive, although it’s not a weighty element in giving an opinion) I expect much more.
