Ardbeg Anthology 13 Year: The Harpy’s Tale
Ardbeg is truly one of my favorite whisky brands. But, if I’m being truthful, the last couple years their products and their pricing have been a total miss for me. The only recent product I absolutely loved and was so surprised with was Ardbeg BizarreBQ. Here we have another release that yes, we paid way…
