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.

Undrinkable tat. It reminds me of a hospital ward in the 80s.
I buy this regularly as an easy drink. Excellent price point. I find some of the reviews harsh which is not what I can say for the notes of this excellent drop.
rotten on the nose rotten on the pallet, buy a Glen Moray you won't regret it, am ok I make my own blends and will use this as a base worst SM I've ever tasted or smelt. I'd be ashamed to bottled & tub this stuff & put it on sale. Burns your nose you no good smelling notes.
Boozy, almost hoppy nose. Plenty of Sherry. Could have a touch more peaty/smoke to offset the sweet. Reminds me of that old grants. Cheap as chips. Not great but great for the price, a weeknight drinker for the monetarily impaired!
Smooth, mildly peaty and a sweet toffee finish. Easy drinker
