Aultmore 15 Yrs

A beautiful nose with aromas of crisp red apples that mix with smooth toffee, followed by dates, ripe plums and dark chocolate, speckled with raisins. There is really a huge
impression of dark dried fruit and after a while ripe cherry aromas appear.
Hints of sweet tobacco notes complete this complex and gorgeous dram. With
water the body gets a bit creamier.

In 1898 the Teacher family built Ardmore, to secure access to single malt for their eponymous blend. Although the family no longer owns Ardmore, the product is still at the core of Teacher’s Highland blend. Until 2002 the pot stills were directly fired, in a time that most distilleries already had switched to indirect heating. The impressive furnaces can still be seen in the still house. Ardmore has had different owners over time, among which a Spanish (Allied Domecq) and an American one (Jim Beam). In 2014 Suntory took over Beam and since then Ardmore is owned by the Japanese. To celebrate that event Ardmore Legacy was launched.
