Ardmore 12 Year Old 2012 Single Cask (Master of Malt)
This single malt was distilled at the awesome yet underrated Ardmore in 2012, and spent the next dozen years maturing in a cask that previously held Laphroaig single malt! Malty, salty, peaty, it's a decadent dram that unfolds boldly, offering plenty of peat-peppered depth to reflect upon and explore. A total of 263 bottles join our exclusive Master of Malt collection, without added colour or chill filtration.
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Sea breeze, malt loaf, dark, roasty notes of coffee stout, and treacle, then seaweed, coastal peat smoke, hibiscus honey on burnt toast.
Palate
Robust right from the off, with a hearty dose of peppery peat balanced by slick salted toffee, and chocolate caramel digestive biscuits. Dark chocolate and espresso develop over time.
Finish
Sticky toffee pudding, rhubarb and custard sweets, smoky oak, meaty malt, jammy fruit, peat, ginger and peppercorn warmth.
