- Description
- Ardnamurchan's 2023 Sherry Cask Release blends peated and unpeated Highland malt matured in ex-oloroso and ex-PX casks, bottled at 50% ABV. Waves of dried fruit—prune, caramelised cherry, and raisin—dominate the palate, with the sherry casks adding sweetness and depth to the malt's natural character. The texture is notably chewy and viscous, coating the mouth with sweet oak and stone fruit notes. This approachable dram suits those seeking sherry influence without overwhelming smoke, ideal as an after-dinner whisky.
