Ardmore reviews

Ardmore distillery is located in the far South-East of Speyside, at the edge of the Grampian mountains. The name Ardmore derives from the Gaelic 'Ard moi' meaning 'Big Slope', a reference to the undul…

A great all rounder, very reliable. Nose: Sherry dried fruit and apricots. Taste: Malt dominates soft sweet grain, some peat and a little smoke. Finish: Dryer with a touch of butter and cocoa on the…
