Ardnahoe – Infinite Loch 2024 (50%)

Ardnahoe Infinite Loch is an Islay single malt and a tribute to Loch Ardnahoe, the loch beside the distillery that supplies its water. It matured in a combination of first-fill Bourbon and Oloroso sherry casks, and is bottled at 50% ABV without chill-filtering or artificial colour. The Bourbon casks bring vanilla and sweetness, while the sherry casks add depth and spice. The nose combines sea spray, Islay peat and dark chocolate. On the palate, fresh fruit and menthol meet pronounced smoke and subtle bonfire notes. The finish is long, intense and smoky, with a fresh touch of citrus.
