Tasting Notes
Ardnamurchan AD/09.22 Cask Strength is a true embodiment of the rugged Highland coast, inviting you on a captivating journey through the elements. Upon uncorking, waves of maritime smoke billow forth, intertwined with the comforting embrace of oaky vanilla and zesty lemon notes. As you indulge, the coastal peat unfurls its smoky tendrils, mingling harmoniously with the sweetness of ripe summer berries and the warmth of oak. Gentle peppery spice adds a tantalizing kick, perfectly complementing the whisky's robust character. The finish is a lingering caress of peat, seasoned with a gentle salinity reminiscent of sun-kissed seaweed. This cask strength offering from Ardnamurchan, crafted with a higher proportion of peated whisky aged in bourbon and sherry casks, alongside unpeated, sherry-aged malt, delivers a robustly smoky yet balanced Highland experience, bottled at a spirited 58.4% and sans chill-filtration.
