DESCRIPTION

A limited batch release from the Ardnamurchan distillery in the Highlands. Produced from peated spirit (30PPM) distilled in 2017, matured in bourbon barrels before being finished in Mezcal casks for 20 months. Just under 5,000 bottles were produced. Non-chillfiltered, naturally coloured and bottled at a higher strength of 55%. (Bottle size 70cl)

OFFICIAL TASTING NOTES

Nose: Green, grassy, vegetal. Immediate sense of the Mezcal spirit. This quickly dissipates, opening the door to fresh, crisp, Granny Smith apples. Green bananas. Resilient, ashy smoke.

Palate: Bright, herbaceous, eucalyptus. Chalky, mineralic, seashore essence. Olive brine, salty capers and flat-leaf parsley. A weighty, fatty dram with an earthy backbone.

Finish: Gentle wisps of integrated smoke. Creamy, sweet aftertaste. Earthy.
