Ardnamurchan AD/Madeira Cask Release 2025 is a harmonious fusion of peated and unpeated single malts. In early 2018 bourbon casks were filled with roughly a 60/40 ratio of unpeated to peated spirit. These casks were then re-racked into Madeira casks and aged for two years. Just before reaching 7 years old, the casks were vatted and bottled, resulting in a batch of just under 19,000 bottles.
Available in 700ml bottles, at 52% abv, this dram is bottled without colouring or chill filtration.
