Ardnamurchan AD/ Tokaji Cask Release Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Ardnamurchan AD/ Tokaji Cask Release is a limited-edition Highland single malt finished in Hungarian Tokaji wine casks. This 700mL bottle is 52% ABV (104 proof) with no age statement — unpeated Highland spirit given a rare Tokaji finish, non-chill filtered with natural colour.
Ardnamurchan Distillery sits at Glenbeg on the Ardnamurchan peninsula in Lochaber — Scotland's most westerly mainland distillery — built and owned by independent bottler Adelphi, with production commencing in 2014. It's billed as Scotland's greenest distillery: all heat and power come from local renewables, a biomass boiler fueled by woodchip from nearby Ardnamurchan forestry and hydroelectric generation from the Glenmore River, with 100%-recycled-material cartons and draff byproduct used as animal feed.
Tasting notes
Ripe fruit and floral elegance up front, honeyed sweetness through the middle, and gentle spice on the finish — the Tokaji casks layering dessert-wine richness over Ardnamurchan's coastal Highland character.
