Ardnamurchan AD/The Midgie 2026 Release is a Highland single malt from the independent Ardnamurchan distillery. It is the third edition of an annual summer bottling named after the Highland midge, and earlier editions were made with Smidge, the UK midge repellent brand. The 2026 blend vats 28% peated and 72% unpeated spirit, matured in ex-bourbon barrels (34%), tawny port barriques (17%) and ruby port barriques (49%). It is bottled at 48% ABV, non-chill filtered and with natural colour. The distillery describes a nose of red raspberry, golden syrup and cedar, a palate of gentle cigar smoke, bramble and pink peppercorn, and a finish of bitter orange and sea salt.

About Glenbotal

The idea of Glenbotal came to us naturally: as whisky lovers, we were always on the lookout for new experiences in the whisky world. That’s why we created Glenbotal and became our very own first customers. We buy unique and hard to find spirits from ballots and private collections. Then, we share them with a small circle of friends and people who can appreciate a good dram.
