Released in 2014 to take the place of the Ardmore Traditional, the Legacy brings a lightly-peated, wood spice-led flavour profile to the table. At its core, the Ardmore Legacy is made with 80% peated and 20% unpeated malt.
It leans more on the savoury than the sweet side of things, with light barbecue char and earthy notes up-front. Sweet cinnamon, fresh honey and vanilla toffee waft up at points.
More charred, smoky notes, joined by drying oak, pear drops and subtle grassy touches. Give it a minute for citrus zest and expressive heather to appear.
A lasting peat smoke finish, with a little bit of honey'd barley for good measure.
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
Light and with the smoked finishing taste, it is overall an excellent al ocassion single malt.
Not good . For me even monkey shoulder have much bytter taste and after taste
