25-year-old ElD 1997y

About

Ardmore's 25-year-old expression represents a refined achievement in maturation and balance. This Highland single malt showcases the distillery's characteristic subtle peat smoke, enriched by elegant fruity notes that have developed gracefully over decades. The whisky's layered complexity and poised character make it a formidable demonstration of what patient aging can accomplish. On the nose, you'll discover a captivating interplay of smoked fruit, almond, and hints of charcoal, with underlying notes of lemon zest and berries. The palate presents a full, oily mouthfeel featuring brandied cherries, ripe fruit, and fine oak, while the finish elegantly trails away with citrus touches and a pleasant tannic structure. This whisky exhibits great maturity without the medicinal qualities often associated with peated malts.
