SALTIRE ARDMORE 15YR 48.8% 700ML RARE MALT WHISKY COMAPANY; SINGLE MALT SCOTCH WHISKY

A quick, pleasant attack of woodsmoke hits the nostrils. Then aromas of lemon verbena and bread, toasted over a garden fire, followed by floral notes resembling gardenia, honeysuckle and jasmine. Some pine nuts in the taste. Definitely in the floral domain, no fruitiness except the suggestion of lemon when water is added. A real appetizer with a neat and quick finish.

Distillery Notes In 1898 the Teacher family built Ardmore, to secure access to single malt for their eponymous blend. Although the family no longer owns Ardmore, the product is still at the core of Teacher’s Highland blend. Until 2002 the pot stills were directly fired, in a time that most distilleries already had switched to indirect heating. The impressive furnaces can still be seen in the still house. Ardmore has had different owners over time, among which a Spanish (Allied Domecq) and an American one (Jim Beam). In 2014 Suntory took over Beam and since then Ardmore is owned by the Japanese. To celebrate that event Ardmore Legacy was launched.
