Ardmore 12 y.o. Cask Strength Signatory

This exclusive bottling from Signatory Vintage is a powerful and authentic single malt Scotch whisky from the venerable Ardmore Distillery in the Highlands. Distilled in 2012 and bottled after 12 years of maturation in a first-fill bourbon barrel, this whisky impresses with its aromatic depth, natural color, and an impressive alcohol content of 60.7% ABV at cask strength – naturally non-chill-filtered. The bottling bears the cask number #802004 and is limited to a few bottles.

The combination of intensive bourbon cask maturation and Ardmore's traditional, lightly peated style makes this whisky a true character. Typical Highland smokiness meets vanilla sweetness, spicy notes, and a creamy texture. Packaged in the elegant Signatory Vintage tin, this bottling is a highlight for collectors and lovers of cask-strength Highland single malts. Tasting notes: Color: Light gold with a light honey sheen.

Nose: Powerful and clean with notes of vanilla, toasted oak, citrus, smoke, and dried hay.

Palate: Intense, oily, and complex with sweet malt, white pepper, creamy vanilla, herbs, and a subtle peat smoke.

Finish: Long, warming, and dry with a spicy finish, subtle smoke, and bourbon barrel sweetness.
