Selected and bottled exlusively for the 2023 Hororata Highland Games, this single cask expression comes from the remote Ardnamurchan distillery on the West Coast of Scotland. Cask #372 was an ex -bourbon barrel filled with unpeated spirit, producing 258 bottles at a natural strength of 57.8%.
We are proud to bring this very special dram to New Zealand, and thank those who support the games through the sale of this whisky.
Tasting notes from Michael Fraser Milne, Whisky Galore:
Nose: Coastal/ozone, vanilla/oak/toffee, overlays of lime.
Palate: notes of poached pear, sponge, creamy oatmeal, digestive biscuit, oak, with gentle spices.
Finish: The coastal tang lingers, with gentle seaweed salinity, full autumn fruits and cereal notes, long.
