Ardmore 14 year old RAW CASK by Blackadder
The Blackadder 14 Year Old is a distinctive Highland single malt shaped by an intriguing maturation in ex-Laphroaig casks. These former Islay whisky casks bring an unmistakable character to the spirit, combining rich Highland malt with layers of smoke, medicinal notes and subtle maritime influence.
Bold and individual, this is a whisky for those who appreciate expressions with a pronounced peated character and a story behind their maturation. Bottled at 14 years old and presented at 700ml, it offers a rich and immersive dram with plenty of character.
