Description
This is the second release of cask strength whisky that sees the folks at the distillery opt for a higher percentage of peated whisky compared to previous batch that is aged in a combination of bourbon and sherry casks, alongside unpeated sherry-aged malt. Bottled at 58.4% ABV and non-chill filtered, this is a Highland single malt that’s certainly on the smokier side and will appeal to a broad range of palates!
About Ardnamurchan distillery
Ardnamurchan distillery was built and is owned by Adelphi, an independent bottling company and is considered one of the remotest distilleries in Scotland.
With a keen eye on sustainability, the distillery is powered by renewable energy to reduce their carbon footprint via hydro-electric power and a large bio-mass boiler using timber from the nearby Ardnamurchan forest. The boiler provides heat to the distillery floor maltings and the distillery and the whisky is created using water from springs above the distillery drawing from the Glenmore River.
