The Ardmore Legacy

Hints of damp fireworks overlayed with pink grapefruit zest and apple cores. I really must clean up the kitchen after night on the "Legacy".
Having said that a thoroughly enjoyable nippy sweetie with a touch of tap water, to act as a distraction while while the wife watches Emmerdale.

Very disappointed, glad I didn't pay top price, don't like the smell of it either bit like tcp!

So I came at this bottle expecting a bit too much and I was initially disappointed. I looked a the price and compared it other whiskies at a similar price and it’s kind of OK. No age statement, it’s gonna be a bit sudden and harsh at first. Not a lot of obvious scents or flavors either at least not in my batch. It’s definitely for drinking and not for slowly savoring, as a drinking whisky it’s ok, but it also benefits from sitting out of the bottle for a bit before you drink it. Don’t know how to categorize that and I probably will buy an Ardmore again but one of those more expensive malts.

What a pleasant surprise! I've avoided this whisky because it doesn't bear an age statement and it comes in at the industry low-mark of 40% ABV. What a mistake on my part. 'Subtle' is the word, but so too -- and almost shockingly so -- 'viscous', even 'lingering'. How does something so delicate haunt the imagination for seeming epochs after the snootful? Art, fellow tipplers! Art just about covers it.

If whisky were a woman, her name would Ardmore.

I’m mourning the loss of my bottle of Ardmore Legacy. It died today.
Do I want to get another, like a second faithful chocolate lab to replace ‘Arthur’? Yes, I do. Otherwise I’d miss that smokey, smooth, astringent ‘whap’ in the tastebuds, the sharpness in the back of the throat. To the whisky dealer I must go.

Absolutely disgusting. Worst whiskey I've ever had. 🤮🤮🤮

Opened a bottle for last night's game well had one nip and I was done utter boak

Very pleasant. I'm not usually a fan of the peaty stuff but this comibines the sweetness and honey of a typical Highland with just a hint of peat. A pleasant combination and very drinakble. We took it away on a camping trip and it went down a treat.

Quite good and I like the peat smoke. It carries a whole lot of tastes but somehow it might have a little more body.

A bit too smokey for my liking. It was a good one to move onto late in the evening sat outside by the fire
