Producer Description
"This whisky is honed and inspired by the finest and most spectacular location of any distillery in Scotland – The Ardnamurchan Peninsula.
Whisky is a natural product and we’ve ensured this is reflected in the way we operate. Uniquely in the whisky industry, all the power and heat requirements for the Ardnamurchan Distillery come from local renewables – the river that provides the distillery’s cooling water has a hydro-electricity generator and the biomass boiler is fuelled by woodchip from local forestry – the overall footprint of the distillery is a light one.
In addition, the by-products of the whisky-making process are recycled on the peninsula – the still energy-rich draff (what is left in the mash tun) is combined with the pot ale to produce animal feed for the use on the peninsula."
Ardnamurchan AD Single Malt

Ardnamurchan is unquestionably one of the most exciting young distilleries in Scotland. The whisky is rough-and-tumble old school highland malt. In other words, exactly what we love in young whisky. Expect a wee bit of peat with this one.
Producer Note

Natural colour, non-chill filtered, and bottled at 46.8% abv.

Ardnamurchan utilizes blockchain technology to track and record how their whisky is made then bottled. There is a QR code on the back of each bottle of Ardnamurchan bottle that links to everything from tasting notes, to who did the mash that day, and even the fermentation time. According to the info provided, we can thank Nick Docherty for this batch - at least fermentation-wise. Scott Stewart was responsible for the spirit run/distillation.

Producer Description
"It’s a potion that Angus cooked up in collaboration with the good folk at Ardnamurchan Distillery. It’s a mix of 1st fill and 2nd fill, peated and unpeated sherry octaves. We mixed them all together and married them in a refill sherry butt for over six months until the whole potion turned 7 years old, then we bottled it with slight reduction at 57.1%. For those of you that deify transparency, here’s the recipe...
- 2017 – Unpeated 1st Fill Sherry
- 2017 – Peated 1st Fill sherry
- 2017 – Peated 1st Fill Sherry
- 2017 – Peated Refill Sherry
- 2016 – Unpeated Refill sherry
- 2016 – Unpeated Refill Sherry
- 2016 – Unpeated Refill Sherry
- 2016 – Unpeated 1st Fill Sherry
"We wanted to celebrate and mark the final edition of Whisky Sponge with a whisky that was excellent quality, one that was collaborative and that we’d had a role in creating and making unique to us, and that was modern in the best sense and looked to the future. We feel we have succeeded in this – we hope you agree. Now, please buy a bottle of this whisky, place it into your rucksack, put on a sturdy pair of brogues and walk to the far West Highlands of Scotland, whereupon you will spend the rest of your days communing with nature and enjoying erotic woodland rituals with whoever will agree to participate. Good luck and farewell!
