The Single Cask Ardmore 1996 21 Years Old (53.8% abv)

Nose: Well-oaked, with a hint of orange oil developing underneath fragrant smoke.   Palate: Thick waves of honey and caramel, joined once again by smoke and mature oak.   Finish: A pinch of sea salt and black pepper arrives on the finish.

This expression can be purchased by the dram or as a part of a flight at The Single Cask and can also be purchased by the bottle at the following link:
