ABOUT

An impressive start from one of Scotland’s newest single malt distillers, located on the remote Ardnamurchan (ard-na-murkan) peninsula in the western Highlands. Ardnamurchan Distillery produces both a peated and non-peated whisky and then combines the two. The result is a soft, pretty, honeyed profile, with gentle notes of lemon, poached pears, sea salt, and light drifts of peat smoke. Vanilla cream, ripe peaches, and apricot jam at the finish closing with a final note of peat. Artfully made, most notably with its subtle integration of smoke.

Distilled at one of Scotland’s greenest distilleries, this is the first single malt released by Ardnamurchan to be available in the US. Each bottle is equipped with a blockchain-enabled QR code that enables a thorough exploration of the whisky’s provenance from grain to bottle.

  • Single Malt Whisky distilled at Ardnamurchan (ard-na-murkan) Distillery on the westernmost peninsula of the Scottish Western Highlands (north of the Isle of Mull and south of the Isle of Skye)
  • This bottling is entitled AD/03.21:02, 50/50 split of peated and unpeated malt in the mash bill
  • Aged in ex-bourbon (65%) and ex-sherry (35%) casks
  • Non-chill filtered; 46.8% ABV

TASTING NOTES

The nose of nutmeg, toffee apple, Seville oranges, and driftwood. The palate exhibits grapefruit marmalade and flamed orange peel complemented by sweet soy sauce and ripe peach with a finish of warming Sichuan peppercorn and campfire smoke.
