Ardnamurchan AD/04.21:03
Origin and bottling
Ardnamurchan Distillery is located in one of the most beautiful places in Scotland. Few people live on the Ardnamurchan Peninsula but its nature is dazzling with mountains, forests and beautiful views of the islands on Scotland's west coast. This Idyllic spot is home to the Ardnamurchan Distillery, which has been producing true "West-Coast" whisky since June 2014. This Ardnamurchan AD/04.21:03 is made up of a combination of peated and unpeated whisky (50% / 50%).
Cask type
This Ardnamurchan AD/04.21:03 has matured in both ex-bourbon (65%) and ex-sherry casks (35%). This has resulted in a very flavourful and almost "old-fashioned" whisky.
Tasting notes according to Whisky Import Nederland
Nose
A flood of fresh fruit with pickled orange peel, marmalade, moves into toffee and nougat with a hint of "sandy beach".
Taste
Lovely warming oak with honey, peanut brittle and stewed red fruit. All that topped with salty influences.
Finish
A delicious combination of sweet and salt with some sweet peat left behind as well.
Ardnamurchan Distillery
Ardnamurchan Distillery is located on the remote and scenic Ardnamurchan peninsula on the west coast of Scotland. Established in 2014 by Adelphi, a respected independent bottler, the distillery is known for its commitment to sustainability and traditional production methods. Ardnamurchan uses renewable energy sources such as hydroelectric power and wood pellet boilers.
The distillery produces both unpeated and peated whiskies, each with their own distinctive flavour profile. The unpeated Ardnamurchan whiskies are known for their elegant and fruity character, with notes of apple, pear, vanilla and a subtle spiciness. These whiskies offer a smooth and accessible taste experience.
In contrast, the peated Ardnamurchan whiskies have a more robust profile, characterised by rich smoke notes and earthy influences, combined with hints of citrus and spice. These whiskies are more complex and have a deeper, more intense flavour.
Ardnamurchan whiskies are often constructed from both a combination of peated and unpeated whiskies and as a blend of bourbon cask and sherry cask matured single malts, which provides a nice balance and depth of flavours. The combination of innovative sustainability, traditional craftsmanship and Ardnamurchan's unique terroir makes this distillery a remarkable newcomer to the Scotch whisky world.
