- Description
- Ardnamurchan's 2015 spirit spent five years in ex-Oloroso sherry casks (casks 332 & 333) before Adelphi bottled it at robust 59.3% ABV, releasing just 1,333 bottles from this Highland single malt. The relatively young age allows the distillery's characteristic profile to shine through while the sherry wood adds depth without overwhelming, contributing dried fruit and subtle sweetness to the spirit's developing character. This indie bottling partnership with whisky expert Charles MacLean signals quality curation. Ideal for those exploring newer Highland distilleries or seeking vibrant, fresh single malts with sherry influence.
