ARDBEG 13 YEAR OLD ANTHOLOGY 'THE HARPY'S TALE' Matured in a combination of Bourbon casks and Sauternes wine barriques.46% ABV / 70cl Ardbeg. You’d think that the rare nature of our whisky would be enough, but it’s Islay and her oddities that really stir us.

Inspired by the seldom-seen Harpy – a winged beast said to inhabit Islay – this legendary edition is a first for the Distillery. The Harpy’s Tale has been matured for 13 years in rare Sauternes wine casks and married with classic Ardbeg ex-bourbon. After over a decade in the cask, soaring smoke swoops into sweetness as Ardbeg’s unmistakable character wrangles with the richness of the Sauternes casks. A supreme aged expression… the taste almost as sensational as the tale…

King Ferdinand II wished to commemorate the birth of his first-born heir with a medal. Instructions for the medal were given to the Mint Controller on 16th May 1836. However, due to unforeseen circumstances and despite Laudicina's efforts to complete the medal in time, there were delays caused by the malfunction of the mint's large press, forcing the use of the common coining press. The king, not completely satisfied, wanted to review additional designs before deciding. Ultimately, he chose a second design, and the two specimens of the first medal were returned to the mint with orders to cancel them.Laudicina died in July 1839, and only in June 1842 the General Director allowed the engraver Andrea Cariello to complete the minting, which was ready in September 1842. The King ordered the usual quantities: 12 gold medals, 50 silver medals, and 200 bronze medals, which were delivered to the Ministry on September 30, 1842.

King Ferdinand II wished to commemorate the birth of his first-born heir with a medal. Instructions for the medal were given to the Mint Controller on 16 May 1836. However, due to unforeseen circumstances, despite Laudicina's efforts to complete the medal in time for the occasion, there were delays caused by the malfunctioning of the mint's large press, forcing them to use the common press for coinage. The King, not entirely satisfied, wanted to see more designs before making a decision. In the end he chose a second design and the two specimens of the first medal were returned to the mint with instructions to cancel them. Laudicina died in July 1839, and it was not until June 1842 that the Director General authorised the engraver Andrea Cariello to complete the die, which was completed in September 1842. The King ordered the usual quantities of 12 gold, 50 silver and 200 bronze medals, which were delivered to the Ministry on 30 September 1842. The title of Duke of Calabria was traditionally conferred on the heir to the throne of the Kingdom of Naples.
