ARDMORE 40 ans 1985 Whiskyland Chapter Twenty Five Decadent Drinks

Founded in 1898 in the eastern Highlands, Ardmore is one of the few distilleries in the region to have retained a distinctly peated style. Its peat is dry and earthy rather than maritime, paired with a robust, malty and structured spirit that thrives over long maturation. With time, the smoke softens, gaining elegance and depth. This 40 Year Old 1985 Ardmore, matured in a refill hogshead, is a masterful expression of that evolution: the peat is beautifully aged and integrated, revealing layers of wax, ripe fruits, dry herbs and antique oak.
