The supremely exciting and highly anticipated third annual release from Ardnamurchan Distillery, located in the Western Highlands, is here. The 2023 Paul Launois release is a masterpiece matured in first-fill bourbon casks before being transferred into Champagne Paul Launois wine barriques for a year-long finishing period. Bottled at a natural cask strength of 57.1% ABV, this limited edition release has yielded only 2676 bottles. Ardnamurchan is renowned as the first Scottish distillery to adopt blockchain technology, offering consumers a fully transparent ledger of its supply and production chain through a QR code on the bottle. This transparency allows whisky enthusiasts to trace each step of the whisky's journey from field to bottle. Situated in a remote location, Ardnamurchan Distillery utilizes a local circular economy, with all its heat and power requirements supplied by renewable sources within two miles of the distillery. This includes hydroelectricity from the nearby river that also provides cooling water and wood chips for its biomass boiler, sourced from sustainable forestry. The result is a whisky that's as sustainable as it is exceptional, boasting a rich heritage and modern innovation.
