Quarter casks increase the interaction between spirit and wood, allowing flavour development to accelerate, while the refill nature of the cask ensures that the influence remains measured and integrated rather than dominant.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eArdmore’s spirit is known for its gentle, earthy peat smoke, often accompanied by orchard fruit and a subtle floral edge. This profile lends itself particularly well to sherry finishing, where the added sweetness and spice can enhance the whisky without masking its underlying character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThe result is a whisky that feels both expressive and composed. Notes of red apple skin, burnt toffee, and smoked herbs create a layered profile where fruit, sweetness, and smoke sit in harmony. The influence of the Oloroso cask adds a soft fruitiness and gentle depth, complementing the whisky’s naturally balanced structure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eBottled at cask strength (59.1% ABV), with natural colour and without chill filtration, this release delivers both intensity and texture while remaining approachable with time or a drop of water. With an outturn of just 137 bottles, it is a compact and characterful release that highlights Ardmore’s understated elegance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eA refined Highland malt - lightly peated, fruit-led, and thoughtfully matured - offering both complexity and easy drinkability in equal measure.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lady Of The Glen","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56976991256951,"sku":"LOTG-ARD-12-591","price":77.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0428\/1722\/4864\/files\/lady-of-glen-ardmore-12-year-old-1.jpg?v=1775297704","url":"https:\/\/topwhiskies.com\/products\/lady-of-the-glen-ardmore-12-year-old","provider":"TopWhiskies","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
