Ardbeg ‘An Oa’ | ‘The BBQ Smoker’ | The Ultimate Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky Gift Set

Detailed Description

An Oa is named after the Mull of Oa in the south west of Islay, which offers the Kildaton coast (where Ardbeg distillery is situated) some protection from the worst the Atlantic has to offer! As such, An Oa is intended to show a more approachable side to Ardbeg single malt that’s as rounded as the Oa peninsular, without losing the characteristic distillery style. This gift pack includes one BBQ Smoker and one bottle of Ardbeg An Oa ‚Äì the perfect spirit for sippin‚Äô and tearin‚Äô. Small but mighty, the smoker lets you surround your food with smoke in just a few easy steps. Simply fill the puck with wood chips, lay it at the back of your grill, wait until your BBQ is sufficiently smoky, place your food around the puck, smoke it out some more, and voil√†! Once your food is smoked, cooked, and practically falling off the bone, all that‚Äôs left to do is plate up and pair with a delectably smooth dram of Ardbeg An Oa.
