Product description

Product description
The Ardnahoe Bholsa is part of the standard range of the new Ardnahoe Distillery and is named after the Bholsa caves on the north coast of Islay. The distillery draws its soft, lightly peated water from the Ardnahoe lake of the same name. Ardnahoe is the only distillery on Islay to use two classic worm tubs and exceptionally long lyne arms on the two copper Pot Still stills, which ensure intense copper contact and give the whisky a special depth and complexity. Most of the Bholsa matures in Oloroso sherry casks, giving it its strong colour and fruity nuances, which the whisky presents fully and intensively in combination with smoke at 50% vol. With Ardnahoe, the Laing family is fulfilling a long-held wish to have their own distillery.

Die Ardnahoe Distillery wurde 2018 von Stewart Laing und seinen Söhnen Andrew und Scott auf Islay gegründet. Die Familie, die hinter dem Unabhängigen Abfüller Hunter Laing & Co. steht, hat sich damit den lang gehegten Traum einer eigenen Brennerei erfüllt. Der Name Ardnahoe kommt aus dem schottisch-gälischen und bedeutet „Höhe der Höhle“. read more
