Nose: A powerful blend of sweet port, ripe plums, and luscious red berries, sharply balanced by smoky driftwood, salt, and maritime minerals.
Palate: Creamy and sweet with plum jam and succulent red fruit, which quickly evolves into intense notes of peat smoke, chilli pepper, and sea salt.
Finish: Long, sweet, and smoky, leaving a warm impression of dark fruits, peat, and maritime spice.

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.

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.
