ARDNAMURCHAN MADEIRA CASK
This is Ardnamurchan's second Madeira release, the first came out in the autumn of 2022 and was completely unpeated. This time they have used Bourbon casks from early 2018, using a rough ratio of 60/40 unpeated to peated spirit, the casks were re-racked into Madeira casks just over two years ago. These casks were vatted just prior to reaching 7 years old and bottled at 52% ABV, yielding just under 19,000 bottles.
