Whisky Wednesday Reviews Ardnamurchan Sauternes Cask – Scotch Whisky News

Ardnamurchan Sauternes Cask, 50%
It’s fair to say that Ardnamurchan has very much conquered my heart, my whisky heart anyway.
I’m not a Sauternes cask kind of guy, but if they release it, I’ll buy it.
Matured in refill American oak casks that have previously held Sauternes Wine – this liquid is soaked on apricots, marzipan, fresh melon, and some biting coastal salt and pepper.
I do like this. It is fun. It may not have fully won me over to the side of Sauternes, but it’s the nicest example of the cask type that I’ve experienced.
Fair play again to Ardnamurchan!
