Ardbeg Dark Cove (2016) is a limited-edition single malt Scotch whisky released for Ardbeg Day, celebrating the distillery’s annual festival. It is known for its deep, rich, and smoky character, with a dark, intense flavor profile. The whisky is matured in a combination of ex-bourbon and dark sherry casks, which lend it notes of treacle, dark chocolate, and smoked spices.

Dark Cove is often described as the "darkest Ardbeg ever," with its blend of rich sweetness and intense peat smoke, creating a bold and complex tasting experience.
