Apologies, Speyside it very much is (although with the amount of peat used on this baby anyone could be forgiven for thinking it was an Islay malt if tasted blind). Thanks for pointing out the error.

Tasting Notes:
Tasting Notes by Tim F Very promising peaty, honeyed nose with traces of heather and coal tar soap. Bursts to life on the palate, with an immense, really profound, chewy peat character that goes on and on and on, with the honey and some spices surfacing occasionally before a medicinal, peaty, smoked fish finish. A massive dram – peat-lovers will adore it, but definitely not for the uninitiated.
Brand Info:
Ardmore
Peated Speysider Ardmore has recently been relaunched by owners Beam Global (who bought the distillery in 2005 from Allied Domecq), with the first official bottlling for many years: Ardmore Traditional Cask. This expression is similar to sister distillery Laphroaig's Quarter Cask bottling, in that the malt is matured in traditional barrels before a second maturation in smaller casks to accelerate the development of the whisky due increased increased contact with the wood.Read more >
