Ardnamurchan 'Mezcal Cask 2025 Release' 55%

This recipe uses only 2017 peated spirit matured in Bourbon casks for six years, before being finished in Mezcal casks for over eighteen months.

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.
