Ardmore 40 Year Old - 1985 | Whiskyland Chapter 25 Octomore Series 15 40 Years of ageSome whiskies feel planned. Others feel like fate. This remarkable 1985 Ardmore, bottled as Whiskyland Chapter 25, firmly belongs in the latter camp. Matured for four decades and drawn from a marriage of two refill hogsheads, this 40 year old Highland single malt was bottled at 43. 8% ABV, yielding just 234 bottles.
