Buy Ardmore 12 Year Old Living Souls Scotch
Discover the haunting, artisanal beauty of Highland peat with Ardmore 12 Year Old – Living Souls. Bottled by the acclaimed independent bottler Living Souls, this limited single-cask release offers an uncompromising look at the rare, peated malt produced at the historic Ardmore Distillery in Kennethmont, Aberdeenshire.
Available now at World of Whiskey Shop, Ardmore 12 Year Old – Living Souls highlights the unique highland style of wood-smoked single malt scotch. Unlike Islay malts that draw maritime, medicinal notes from coastal peat, Ardmore utilizes inland Highland peat, resulting in a cleaner, sweeter, and distinctly botanical smoke profile. Aged for a full 12 years in premium oak casks, this expression is presented naturally without chill-filtration or added color, capturing all the original cask character, natural oils, and texture.
In the glass, it displays a bright golden-straw color. The nose opens with an intriguing bouquet of gentle heather smoke, crisp green apple, and damp moss, followed by notes of honeyed barley, lemon zest, and soft pine resin. On the palate, a silky, medium-to-full-bodied texture unleashes rich layers of toasted oat, salted caramel, and citrus oil, enveloped in smoldering wood smoke, white pepper, and dry oak spice. Bottled at a robust strength (typically high proof or cask strength depending on the specific batch), the finish is long, dry, and warm, concluding with lingering notes of highland peat, sweet malt, and subtle campfire ash.
A prized addition for independent bottling collectors and single malt enthusiasts seeking an authentic alternative to coastal peat, this bottle is best enjoyed neat or with a drop of spring water. Order your bottle today from World of Whiskey Shop.
