The Maltman Whisky Ardmore 15 y.o.
The Ardmore 15-Year-Old from independent bottler The Maltman is a fascinating choice for anyone who appreciates the interplay of Highland smoke and special cask maturations.
What makes this whisky special is its maturation in a former Laphroaig cask.
As Ardmore is one of the few Highland distilleries to use peated malt as standard, its rather dry, grassy Highland smoke meets the maritime intensity of Islay (thanks to the Laphroaig cask).
A Highland whisky in an Islay cask is a rare combination that brings together the best of both worlds – the elegance of the Highlands and the wildness of the coast.
At 55.9% ABV, this malt certainly stands up well to a few drops of water.
