Ardmore 14yo

About the product 🥃
Ardmore 14 Year Old is a cask-strength Highland single malt, matured in a 2nd fill ex-Marsala barrique. Medium peated - a rarity for a Speyside-area distillery - it offers an approachable gateway into smoky whisky styles. This expression highlights Ardmore’s signature balance of gentle smoke, fruit, and floral nuance.

Tasting notes 🌿
Opens with a coastal touch of iodine and smoked fish, followed by warm barley bread. Bright notes of grapefruit and pine nuts develop into floral tones of gardenia, honeysuckle, and jasmine. The finish is quick, yet leaves a sweet trace of liquorice. A well-structured dram that brings smoky, fruity, and floral elements into harmony.

About Ardmore 🏭
Established in 1898 by the Teacher family to supply malt for their blend, Ardmore continues to produce a distinctly peated Highland style. With long fermentations, traditional Douglas fir washbacks, and a medium peated profile, it stands apart from typical Speyside malts. Saltire Rare Malt selects standout casks like this one, bottled without chill filtration or colouring, to showcase the distillery’s character at its purest.
