Ardnahoe – 5 Year Old (Inaugural Release)

Born on the rugged shores of Islay, Ardnahoe’s 5 Year Old represents the distillery’s very first expression. This whisky marries the sweetness of ex-Bourbon barrels with the rich, dried fruit notes imparted by ex-Oloroso sherry casks, resulting in a complex and balanced spirit. Expect a warming character with hints of vanilla, spice, and a subtle smoky undertone reflective of its island home. Bottled in 2024 after five years of maturation, it offers a promising glimpse into the future of this young Highland distillery.
