One of the GREAT malts.

It is very trying restricting yourself to only one of these of an evening. How close is it to the peated Speysides of yesteryear? I wouldn't know but it is a thoroughly delicious variation. Posted By: Douglas Muir

Nice aroma, heather honey and smoke. Slightly sweet flavour with good peaty twang, but by no means as smoky as Laphroaig or Auld Reekie. Thoroughly recommendable. Posted By: Kim Vibaek, Copenhagen, Denmark

WARNING! This whisky is very hard to stop drinking, a good friend and I consumed a whole bottle in one evening! A truly delicious whisky, tasting far better that would be expected at this price and age. Enjoy

Young lightly peated fruity aroma with hint of tobacco. Sweet and malty palate which is kind of unexpected, the finish is exactly like mung beans...strange but interesting. Good for those who don't care for Laphroaig. Posted By: kevin

Just drinking the last of the bottle as I type this and I have to say it's been a pleasure to drink.A great Speyside for those of you who like their peat on the light side with plenty of sweetness and depth. Add a little water to really get the fruit, or just take it neat and take your time over the long finish. Posted By: Rob Gillespie

This was a complementary bottle from the makers of Teachers. Lovely aroma. Superior taste. Very more-ish. Posted By: Joan Airey

Was dubious about a peated malt from Speyside but it's won me over, to say the least. Combines softness and sweetness with a gentle helping of the peat that I'm fond of. I agree with the reviewer who says it's difficult to have just one glass. It's also at an unbelivably low price ATM, so if you're umming and arring about this hesitate no longer. I would rate this more highly than many whiskies I've paid 2-3 times as much for. Posted By: FM

A lovely whisky - current replacement for the dearly departed Gordon Posted By: MC

Should this whisky be clear or cloudy?

Posted on 02 Apr 2010 :

The taste was not what i was expecting from a speyside malt but none the less it was a pleasant surprise,peaty and fruity at the same time.My drinking partner(wife)did not care for the flavour and i had to drink it all by myself"damb shame". Posted By: aussie shaun

My only grumble is that I wish I'd ordered two. This is an incredible whisky for the price, more peaty than I expected, but that is not a complaint. Posted By: Ruaridh

Absolutely dreadful. Maybe there was something wrong with mine but I couldn't drink it, but fortunately managed to exchange it at the supermarket as I persuaded them it was 'bad'. Maybe it was, but maybe it was meant to taste like that!! Posted By: DavidUK

Well balanced malt , great value Posted By: Ken- Ireland

Posted on 13 May 2010 :

i just had a taste of this very nice whiskey....and,,,i have 1 Q : how many years is this whiskey?? is it,,10,,12,,,or?? Posted By: p?r..the Swedish Whiskey lover =)

To Swedish Whisky lover - Ardmore Traditional is released without an age statement, however... I've seen reports that it's in the 6 - 8 year range. If that is true, then it's the best "young" whisky I've ever had. Really quite good no matter how long it's been aged. Posted By: Paul M.

Posted on 12 Jun 2010 :

As a lover of Islay malts, especially the peatier ones, I was really impressed by Ardmore - the reasonably high level of peat is balanced by a delicious sweetness. As it's bottled at 46% it's best diluted to really appreciate the flavour. Good value at the regular price - even better when reduced by 30% :-) Posted By: Jon, Bristol UK

This has got to be one of the best bargains in the whisky world. Posted By: Mr Claw

Ardmore Distillery

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.
