The AD/ 10 Year Old 2025 Release sits naturally alongside the Heritage Barley bottling, offering a more mature take on Ardnamurchan’s house style. This marks the first batch release to include peated spirit at 10 years of age, showcasing the distillery’s evolving character as its stocks come of age.
The recipe brings together nearly equal parts peated and unpeated whisky, matured primarily in ex-bourbon casks, with a small proportion of ex-sherry cask adding depth and balance. Bottled at 46.8% ABV, the focus remains firmly on distillery character, clarity and drinkability.
