Ardmore Peated Vintage 100 Proof Edition #21 12 Years 2012/2024

In the 100 Proof Edition from Signatory Vintage, exclusive whiskies are bottled with an alcohol content of at least 57.1% vol. The term proof is an obsolete unit of measurement for the alcohol content of a drink, especially whisky, which indicates the minimum alcohol content above which gunpowder soaked in the liquid can be ignited. This method was used in the heyday of seafaring so that the barrels in the belly of the ship could withstand the harsh weather conditions at sea. The range fills a gap in the Signatory range. The 12-year-old Ardmore Vintage 100 Proof Edition #21 matured in second fill bourbon barrels previously used at an iconic distillery on Islay and was bottled at 57.1% vol. without the addition of colour and without chill-filtering.
