- Description
- Ardmore's Highland single malt aged nine years—seven in bourbon and two in Oloroso sherry—bridges the distillery's peaty character with creamy, fruity cask influence. The bourbon provides vanilla and light spice while the sherry cask adds richness and dried-fruit complexity, softening the spirit's characteristic peat. Bottled at cask strength (55.5% ABV) by The Sipping Shed in just 72 bottles, it suits those who appreciate Highland peat balanced by thoughtful cask work.
