Official tasting notes.
…… Scents of wood, old-time bar tops and tobacco delicately opening the path to mentholated and quasi-metallic tones supporting this arresting structure. In the mouth, there’s cumin, cinnamon and cardamom notes. Then juicy cedar and sandalwood open up. And finally, we close with that note of precious ancient wood taking us back full circle.

Description
With only 298 bottles released world-wide from a single refill bourbon barrel #805394, this lightly peated, Highlands single malt expression distilled at the Ardmore distillery is a celebration of youth as the image on the label represents a rapidly sketched out picture, like a child’s drawing. Lightly peated (more like wood smoke), the whisky is gentle, floral and fresh.
