Ardnamurchan AD/ Heritage Barley Golden Promise Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky 700mL

This release uses 100% unpeated Golden Promise malted barley, matured exclusively in ex-American bourbon barrels from 2018.

Unpeated Golden Promise malted barley is special because it provides a unique, clean, and sweet malty flavour with a rich, oily mouthfeel that consistently enhances the final product without introducing harsh notes or overpowering other ingredients. This makes it a versatile and highly valued base malt for both brewers and distillers.

This whisky is bottled at 59.2% ABV.

Like all our whiskies this release is un-chill filtered and natural colour.

This whisky is made in batches, this means the product might sell out from time to time.
