Ardmore
Tasting Notes
Ardmore 1990 from Gordon and MacPhail is a delightful Highland whisky that captivates with its delicate balance of smoke and sweetness. Upon nosing, it unveils a light, perfumed aroma intertwined with crisp fruity notes of apple and pear, accompanied by delicate whirls of smoke, honey, sugared citrus peels, and a hint of hay. The palate is refreshingly gentle, with a malty backbone complemented by toffee apple and woody undertones, subtly accented by a touch of peat. The finish lingers pleasantly, offering a harmonious blend of peat smoke and clean cereal notes. This lightly-peated expression from the Ardmore distillery showcases the skill of Gordon and MacPhail in bottling a smooth and well-rounded whisky that beautifully marries the smoky character with a delightful array of fruity and sweet flavors.
