About
Ardmore stands out among Highland distilleries for its distinctive peated character, offering a striking contrast to the region's typically soft and fruity profiles. This 2013 VM release from The Vintage Malt Whisky Co represents the distillery's complex and characterful approach to single malt production. At 52.50% ABV, this bottling delivers a full-bodied and intense tasting experience. The nose reveals an appealing balance of sweetness and peat smoke, with underlying notes of vanilla and fruit compote. On the palate, a velvety arrival showcases vanilla bonbons, citrus, and ethereal smoke that remains persistently present. The palate is robust and layered, featuring ripe fruit notes and buttery undertones alongside spicy elements. The finish is dry and lingering, with continued spicy character. This whisky's distinctive marriage of smoky depth and sweet fruitiness makes it ideal for enjoying neat or with a touch of water to fully appreciate its complexity.
