- On the nose, notes of dried apricot, honey, and golden apple broaden into caramel and vanilla ice cream, backed by wet stone and a whisp of peat smoke. The ample palate presents malty vanilla milkshake, mild salt, and campfire, with golden apple returning along with a hint of oak. Mandarin orange ushers in more smoke and golden orchard fruit for a finish that’s simultaneously silky and robust.
- No added coloring
- Non-chill filtered; bottled at a cask strength of 57.5% ABV
Now an annual release, the ArdnAmerica Tour expression (bottled exclusively for the US) offers American fans of this remote producer a special peek at what the distillery’s magicians have up their sleeves. The 2025 edition doesn’t disappoint: Rewardingly flavorful, it features peated malt, sweetened gloriously with Sauternes, balanced by unpeated malt aged in ex-bourbon casks. Nearly an embarrassment of riches, it’s a luscious dram, specially conjured for evenings of delirium and divine madness.
