Special features: This limited edition represents a world first: Sherry Quarter Cask expressions that have matured exclusively in Pedro Ximénez (PX) Sherry Quarter Casks. Such maturations are rare and give the whisky an intense depth and complexity. The combination of Islay peat and the sweetness of PX sherry creates a harmonious interplay of flavors.
Palate: Raisins, ripe figs, and a pinch of cinnamon.
Finish: A long-lasting, warming aftertaste with a delicate smoky note.
Distillery/Bottler: The Ardnahoe Distillery was founded in 2019 by the Laing family and is the newest distillery on Islay. It is located on the northeast coast of the island, north of Port Askaig, between the Caol Ila and Bunnahabhain distilleries. The name "Ardnahoe" translates from Scottish Gaelic as "Height of the Hollow." The distillery employs traditional craftsmanship and modern techniques to produce characterful single malts.
