In stock

Madeira casks work particularly well with Ardmore’s gently smoky Highland style, adding a richer layer of fruit and sweetness without losing the distillery’s earthy peat character. Here, the cask brings notes of stewed fruit, honey and spice, giving the whisky a rounder, more expressive profile while still keeping that dry, softly smoky Ardmore character in place.
