Description
The Signatory Vintage 100 Proof Edition ARDMORE 14 Years Old Single Malt #62 2011 57.1% Vol. 0.7 l is a Highland single malt Scotch whisky with a strong character that combines the distillery’s distinctive smoky style with Signatory Vintage’s uncompromising bottling philosophy. Distilled in 2011 and matured for 14 years, this bottling comes from the traditional Ardmore Distillery, which is known for its typical Highland peat smoke and robust structure. The 100 proof edition deliberately stands for high alcohol strength in order to present the texture, depth and cask character unadulterated. The chosen single malt cask #62 was specifically selected for this series to reflect the classic Ardmore style in a clear and concentrated way.
At 57.1% vol., this cask strength Highland single malt was bottled at natural cask strength, naturally without chill filtration and without colouring. The maturation in selected oak casks supports the smoky distillery characteristics and ensures a balance between strength and maturity. As part of the limited Signatory Vintage 100 Proof Collection, this bottling is aimed at lovers of intensely structured whiskies with a distinct smoky character, clear origin and long-lasting presence.

The Signatory Vintage Ardmore 14 Years Old 100 Proof Edition is ideal for pure enjoyment with sufficient time in the glass, especially as an expressive dram in the evening. It harmonises very well with grilled meat, smoked dishes or hearty stews, as the peat smoke and cask strength accompany these flavours in a targeted manner. The combination with mature hard cheese, roasted nuts or dark bread with salted butter is equally harmonious. Opened with a few drops of water, this cask strength Highland single malt unfolds additional facets and ensures a long-lasting, intense enjoyment experience.
