About
Ardnamurchan AD/02.22 is a compelling cask strength single malt from Scotland's west highlands, crafted by the innovative Ardnamurchan distillery. This release marries ex-bourbon and ex-oloroso casks to deliver a complex, beautifully balanced dram that is simultaneously smoky and delicate. At 58.7% ABV, the higher strength brings extra intensity without overwhelming the whisky's finer nuances. The nose reveals a seductive profile of zesty lemon peel, salty maritime breeze, and peat smoke, with subtle vanilla undertones. The palate arrives creamy and lively, unfolding floral and grassy notes followed by rich sugars and honey. White pepper and citrus zest dance through, complemented by vegetal smoke and mineral whispers. The finish is notably long, echoing the palate's character with amplified citrus and vegetable notes that linger beautifully. This whisky pairs wonderfully with smoked seafood and works excellently as a contemplative dram.
