1997 GM

Ardmore's 1997 GM is a distinguished Highland single malt bottled by Gordon & MacPhail, showcasing the distillery's signature blend of fruit and smoke matured over decades. With a robust 55.9% ABV, this vintage delivers a silky, full-bodied experience that balances old-school peat influence with elegant fruitiness.

The nose reveals ripe orchard fruits—apples, pears, and apricots—alongside refined smoky notes of ash and wood. On the palate, tropical fruits emerge, including mango and papaya, complemented by honey, citrus, and pepper. The finish is long and intense, with creamy smoke, honey, and orange notes, finishing with a subtle bitterness that adds complexity.
