Located on the most westerly point of the British mainland sits the Ardnamurchan Distillery. Probably one of the most sustainable distilleries in the United Kingdom if not the world, plenty of thought has been given to the environment before designing and developing this distillery. There’s a local hydro-electric generator that provides the cooling water and local forest wood chips that are used to heat the hot water for mashing. The draft left behind after the mash is used to feed local cattle and the pot ale is used for fertilising local fields. Owned and operated by Adelphi the distillery it boasts 2 stills and 7 wash backs. The owners of the distillery are also a very well know quality independent bottler.
The first Limited Release from Ardnamurchan distillery. This is a vatting of unpeated spirit matured firstly in first fill Bourbon barrels then finished in nine wine barriques from Paul Launois, a new Champagne producer in Le Mesnil-sur-Oger. Added into the mix is an unpeated sherry cask of Ardnamurchan for balance to the batch. A limited release of 2,576 bottles and bottled at cask strength of 57.6%.
Branded with ‘AD’, marking both the name of the distillery and standing for “Anno Domini”. The slate grey bottle reflects the volcanic past of the Ardnamurchan peninsula and hydrometer shaped window highlights the colour of the spirit.
Tasting Notes
Nose: Jellied fruits give way to an Auld Alliance of fresh croissants with strawberry jam and warm Aberdeenshire butteries. Honeydew melon with nougat and vanilla ice cream.
Palate: Strawberry tart, muscovado, and apple strudel with orange bitters and pink peppercorns on the finish.
