Ardnamurchan AD Rum Cask Finish Single Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml)
Volume: 700ml ABV: 55% Age: No Age Statement Country: Scotland
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.
Ardnamurchan has used eighteen unpeated ex-Bourbon barrels filled in 2016 and thirteen peated ex-Bourbon barrels from 2017. These were then combined and finished in ex-Jamaican rum casks. Ardnamurchan has a trademark Hebridean freshness and the rum casks help capture these characteristics. If you enjoy cask strength Talisker then this is for you. Only 8334 bottles were produced and it was bottled at 55% alc/vol with no added colour and no chillfiltration.
