THE ARDMORE LEGACY HIGHLAND SINGLE MALT SCOTCH WHISKY

The Ardmore distillery sits at the highest point of the Northern railway line, 600 feet above sea level. Close to the small village of Kennethmont, the proximity to the railway line allowed founder Adam Teacher to transport materials from Glasgow to this remote corner of Aberdeenshire, helping the distillery flourish. Almost unchanged from the moment he made his dream a reality, the water is still drawn from the naturally rising springs that sit on the 1,500 foot tall Knockandy Hill

This Scotch is light golden in color. It has an aroma of heather honey with hints of cinnamon and toffee bonbons. It also has very subtle hints of peat smoke. On the palate, creamy vanilla spice gives way to more overt smoky charcoal notes, especially with the addition of water. Smoke doesn't dominate and is balanced by the sweet honey and spice flavors.
