Ardnamurchan has set a new standard in whisky transparency and customer advocacy. They are providing more useful information than one is likely to receive in a typical distillery tour. Now if only the rest of the industry and especially the Scotch Whisky Association can evolve and follow their lead.
Tony (The Canuck living in Australia).Loving the reviews. The Ardnamurchan CS is one of my all time favourites. Loved the block chain info. Keep up the excellent reviews. Thanks to GWhiskey for the recommendation. 👍😎🇨🇦
Great dram deserves great review. Thanks for sharing, Ben. Have had the joy of tasting several Ardnamurchan expressions. This one being second best, only beaten by an already sold out single cask release. Slàinte mhath
Another great informative video Ben, here in Australia this bottling goes for $160 AUS, 1 per customer. I'll have to do a software engineers course to afford one though.
Oh man I went to this distillery recently. The tasting was of a distillery exclusive whiskey that's never been sold. It's possibly the best thing I've ever tasted. Lovely people as well!
It’s absolutely on my life of distilleries to visit. Really into everything they are doing thete, and I’m SURE they have some incredible stuff tucked away behind closed doors. Cheers!! 🥃
Ben just rechecked the info and tasting notes on the Ad/02.22 cask strength for sale here in Australia and it says the following. Unlike the core range, the cask strength edition sees 8 bourbon barrels re racked in Paul Launois champagne casts and 2 x-bourbon barrels split 0f 84% peated and 16% unpeated spirit. 12,886 bottles are on offer globally. Testing notes done October 14 2022. Would we get a different spirit than the Northern hemisphere but still called the ad 02.22 ?
There is a possibility. It's not uncommon for brands to ship "export" only, or country specific versions... could be a tax or customs thing? Im really interested now... if you could email me your bottle code/QR to hello@whiskydiary.tv, ill check the BC data vs what I have here and we can compare! My bottle link is... ardnamurchan-distillery.co.uk/newBottles-detail/143618 Slainte!! 🥃🥃🥃
I won't be able to afford good quality scotch anymore with these prices, I guess my choice will be Johnnie walker black or Rum, I think I will get into Rum, Lol🥃👍
I wish Ardnamurcan were less expensive here in US , here where I live that one cask strength cost 90$ plus the 13% in taxes, it 100$, the 46% Ardnamurcan is here cost 68$ plus the beautiful sales taxes of Arkansas of 13% on alcohol
That sucks!! It does keep popping up every now and then. Personally, I’d recommend giving any of the Ardnamurchans a go if they are in your price range. All lovely, and a good few Cask Strengths too. Slainte! 🥃🥃
To be fair calling it supply chain information for consumers instead of blockchain will probably make it easier to understand. The blockchain is irrelevant to most consumers. And as you said it's just a distributed database.

Fun review, thank you! Also, I just happened to find this bottle while travelling - now brimming with anticipation to try it this weekend!!
Awesome find! I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. Slainte! 🥃
Another superb review, Ben. I'm loving the B Cam shots. Superb content as always
Cheers brother! 🥃🥃🥃

Hello 👋
Really delighted you enjoyed our Cask Strength! 😊 🥃
I absolutely loved it!! I’ll have to pay you a visit soon enough. Cheers!! 🥃🥃
Another great informative video Ben, here in Australia this bottling goes for $160 AUS, 1 per customer. I'll have to do a software engineers course to afford one though.
Now, that is a great price for a cask strength. I have the standard version of this, so an upgrade is now on the cards. Cheers Ben.

I don't see Ardnamurchan in my US market (Phoenix, AZ). I keep waiting to see it, but never do. Rest assured, as soon as I see it I'm buying it!
Great to hear man!! Absolutely belting bottle for the price. Slainte! 🥃
Whiskey & Tech chats… oh baby ❤ 😅
Calm yourself, Bill.... 😂

Slainte!! 🥃🥃🥃
Very nicely done dude :-)
Great review
'Respect for the consumer' Yes it certainly does.....unlike Diageo, from whom I haven't bought a bottle for the last ten years.
Bought it just now , sounds like a good one!
It’s belting man!! Enjoy!! Slainte 🥃🥃

Hi, I've had a look around...and I can't find it anywhere 😔

The AD/09.22 is available now on master of malt, it’s similar to this, but obviously later batch 👍

Great review! Just bought their new 10/22 Madeira cask. Superb! Buy it, if you see it!
I definitely will… love a Madeira cask. Cheers!! 🥃🥃
👌🥃✌
