Description
Filled in early 2018, bourbon casks were charged with a carefully balanced 60/40 ratio of unpeated to peated spirit, before being re-racked into Madeira casks for a further two years of maturation. Just prior to reaching seven years of age, the casks were expertly vatted and bottled, producing a limited outturn of just under 19,000 bottles in this release.
As with all Ardnamurchan single malt Scotch whiskies, this expression is bottled non-chill-filtered and with natural colour, preserving its full character and coastal Highland identity.
