His father, William Teacher, needed a steady supply of Whisky to support their famous blend — \u0026lt;em\u0026gt;Theacher’s Highland Cream. Beam Suntory \u0026lt;\/em\u0026gt;owns them these days, and until very recently, have treated this fine producer as a\u0026lt;em\u0026gt; “blender’s distillery.” \u0026lt;\/em\u0026gt;But those corporate mucky-mucks have wised up and have turned their attention to their fine ability to produce fine, \u0026lt;em\u0026gt;premium Spirits \u0026lt;\/em\u0026gt;on their own. \u0026lt;\/p\u0026gt;\u0026lt;p\u0026gt;One of the things that makes \u0026lt;em\u0026gt;Ardmore \u0026lt;\/em\u0026gt;so unique is that their malt is one of the very few \u0026lt;em\u0026gt;Highlanders \u0026lt;\/em\u0026gt;to use peat smoke. That alone is a reason to celebrate their brand and character. They will continue to be a primary contributor to the blended Whisky market, but we are all anticipating a full range of single malt offerings on the come. Just in the last year, they have issued their \u0026lt;em\u0026gt;Ardmore Legacy Single Malt, a triple-wood, \u0026lt;\/em\u0026gt;and a brand new \u0026lt;em\u0026gt;Port wood finish. \u0026lt;\/em\u0026gt;\u0026lt;\/p\u0026gt;\u0026lt;p\u0026gt;Everything about this new offering makes total sense. Let’s start with the math … A unique, \u0026lt;em\u0026gt;Highland Single Malt \u0026lt;\/em\u0026gt;producer with a \u0026lt;em\u0026gt;118-year history; \u0026lt;\/em\u0026gt;plus initial 10 years of aging in American white oak ex-Bourbon casks; plus 2 additional years aging in rich, European Port half-pipes; plus \u0026lt;em\u0026gt;46% ABV \u0026lt;\/em\u0026gt;and NO chill-filtering; equals… well you know what all that means. \u0026lt;em\u0026gt;It means tasty! \u0026lt;\/em\u0026gt;\u0026lt;\/p\u0026gt;\u0026lt;p\u0026gt;We know it tastes GOOD, but what does it taste LIKE? Remember that this is not your average Highlander… it has a wee bit of smoke. If you have had \u0026lt;em\u0026gt;Balvenie’s Port Wood Finish, \u0026lt;\/em\u0026gt;then think of \u0026lt;em\u0026gt;The Ardmore 12 Year Port Wood \u0026lt;\/em\u0026gt;as like drinking that Balvenie on the patio of a \u0026lt;em\u0026gt;Havana cigar bar. \u0026lt;\/em\u0026gt;It is crisp and lightly sweet with a hint of aromatic smoke lingering in the background. But no matter what, you owe it to yourself to sample this special dram and see for yourself. \u0026lt;\/p\u0026gt;","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45132211421366,"sku":"39302","price":17.02,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0727\/1251\/9862\/files\/theardmore12yoportwoodfinish-7_39302_01_7f93ef25_5178efae-b8b6-41db-ad6a-650fec715f07.jpg?v=1779122931","url":"https:\/\/noblebottle.com\/products\/theardmore12yoportwoodfinish-700ml-39302","provider":"noblebottle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
