Ardmore Traditional Peated
A Travel Retail exclusive, The Ardmore Tradition is a taste of history itself, journeying back to a time when most Highland distilleries dried their barley with the sweet smoke of local Highland peat. Double matured in oak barrels then smaller Quarter Casks, The Ardmore Tradition is a full and rich liquid, with unique Highland peat smoke flavours.

Tasting Notes
Nose: Full of creamy caramel. Toasted oak with spices is evident and rich and just the faintest peat has muscled its way through.
Palate: The full rich flavours burst and fill the mouth with a creamy peat tang and a touch of vanilla's soft gentleness. If a touch of water is added, then the flavours increase with the addition of a sweet ripe fruit start followed by a tang of peat.
Finish: Full, succulent and quite long. More caramel and sugary barley notes and a lanolin smoothness and more tapering smoke.

Mars Shinshu Sherry Cask Finish
Mars Iwai Sherry Cask Finish is a blended Japanese whisky known for its rich, sweet, and complex character, resulting from a finishing period in Pedro Ximénez sherry casks. It presents a delightful interplay of dried fruits, honey, and subtle peat notes, balanced by a smooth, creamy mouthfeel. The sherry influence adds depth with notes of dark fruits, while subtle oak and spice notes contribute to a lingering, harmonious finish.
