Bottled by Glasgow based independent bottlers Glaschu Spirits Co, this rare 5 year old Ardnamurchan showcases the distillery’s peated spirit, fully matured in a first fill Oloroso sherry hogshead. Just 360 bottles have been drawn from the cask, each presented at a robust 55% ABV, natural colour and un-chillfiltered.
The label artwork adds a distinctive touch, featuring John Cobb’s Crusader, a jet powered racing boat built in 1949, depicted speeding towards the bay of the Ardnamurchan peninsula, with the distillery itself in view. A striking release that captures both the spirit of innovation and the rugged coastal character of Ardnamurchan.
