Short TIMING : 0:00 Intro & Dist. pres. / 11:20 Ardnamurchan AD/04.21.03 / 26:24 Ardnamurchan AD/02.22 C.S. / 41:54 High Coast 8 yo Adelphi C.S. / 52:40 Retrying AD/02.22 (more precise time stamps below)
Today I am coming back to ARDNAMURCHAN distillery (founded in 2014, in the West Coast of Scotland, in the Highlands region) after 7 months, to taste again the AD/04.21:03 & the AD/02.22 expressions, with, as a semi-intruder (semi because it is a bottling made by the independent bottler Adelphi who owns the Ardnamurchan distillery), the HIGH COAST 8 yo Cask Strength they bottled in 2021 which I uncorked very recently (a full review will be done later on within a HIGH COAST distillery overview with 4 bottles). Thanks for your fidelity, support, likes, subscriptions & comments !
