Scanning the QR code leads to loads of info about the contents and production of this whisky. It's quite remarkable the extent of details that they disclose. Even if you don't buy a bottle, do yourself a favor and scan the QR on the next Ardnamurchan you see. This particular bottle is number 66 of 1200 in this batch. The batch is made up of 40 casks of peated whisky and 10 casks of unpeated. The majority of the casks are ex-bourbon barrels, with a handful of sherry casks. Citrusy nose, with lemon and a smidge of orange. A little salt spray, and a tiny wisp of peat smoke. Vanilla cream, black pepper. The palate is nice and creamy with lemon and pear, custard. Candied ginger. The peat starts to come on towards the back of the palate and through the finish, but it's not as strong as I was expecting, considering the proportion of peated casks that were used. The peat is one among many notes, balanced by the fruit and creamy vanilla flavors. The peat is campfire, slightly briny, very mildly vegetal. There is a bit of pepper and burn on the finish, reminding that this is nearly 60% ABV. This is a really nice whisky and after having tasted and enjoyed both the regular strength release and now this one, I'm a fan. I'm reminded a bit of Talisker, which on the far western coast of Scotland, Ardnamurchan doesn't appear too far from the isle of Skye, at least as the crow flies. As long as I can find these releases, I'm inclined to be a regular purchaser.
