ARDBEG ALLIGATOR COMMITTEE RESERVE ISLAY SINGLE MALT The Missouri new oak casks used to produce this limited edition whisky were heavily charred, leaving their insides resembling alligator scales.51.2% ABV / 70cl Located on the island’s rugged south coast, Ardbeg distillery represents the peatier end of the Islay spectrum. While it has endured some tough times, spending several years mothballed, the distillery has undergone a bit of a renaissance since being bought over by Glenmorangie and is now on a stable footing.While it still retains its signature sooty spirit, Ardbeg has also adopted its new parent company’s fondness for experimental cask finishes, arguably increasing its appeal.

Height 27 cm, width 22 cm, depth 18 cm (see illustration). CONDITION REPORT: The cabinet itself is in generally very good original condition. There are no significant splits or cracks to the timber. All brasswork is original. The lock is present but we do not have a key. It is not locked. The doors are not warped, they close as they should. Clearly the surface of the piece has numerous holes, scratches, marks, and dings but no serious problems. The glass flasks are in generally good order. Some have minor nibbles to the top lips and some of the stoppers again have small chips but real significant problems. Some of the stoppers are stuck in place and there is one missing. The pestle and mortar are in good condition. Other accessories are a little rusty and dirty.

Condition Report: Following another inspection, the front rail to the scales has been stamped 'SANDOWN RACECOURSE 1886' Marks, knocks, scratches, cracks and abrasions commensurate with age and use The mechanism appears to be fundamentally original, and works when weight is applied to the seat. Some attention and adjustments may be required. The nut to one of the securing stops is a replacement. Some evidence of old worm to the rails The leather with various marks, scratches and cracks (see all images) Some fading and discolouration to the timber. The legs are threaded and can be screwed off and on. Please note however that when I attempted to do this, only two of the legs could be turned and removed. The other two legs had some movement in them but did not rotate to be removed. It could be possible that some glue has been applied to the threaded element, but there is no evidence to the underside to confirm this.
