Tasting Notes

Colour

Deep amber-gold with a coppery sheen and a whisper of mahogany.

Nose

Aromas pour forth with ardent peat smoke softened by rich sherry influence: dark plum and fig, raisin, and burnt sugar. Vanilla and cocoa nibs drift through, with orange zest, leather, and a touch of espresso. At cask strength, the aroma is opulent and concentrated, revealing Ardmore’s old-school peat paired with refined sherry integration.

Palate

Powerful peat and coastal brine envelope the palate, balanced by rich sherry sweetness. Full-bodied and warming, with vanilla, dried fruit and cocoa, then toasted almond. A long, assertive finish of spice, leather and charred oak lingers.

Finish

Long, smoky finish with sherry‑soaked fruit, dark chocolate and raisin, lifted by peppery spice. Peat lingers in a warm, resinous glow as the oak fades into velvet.

Ardmore
(ARD-moor) Ardmore was founded in 1898 by Adam Teacher to supply peated malt for Teacher’s blends, and it remains one of the more distinctive Highland distilleries for that reason. While peat is more commonly associated with Islay, Ardmore built its name on a smokier Highland style, combining earthy peat, gentle spice and a slightly dry, robust character. The distillery is based at Kennethmont and is now part of Suntory Global Spirits.
