Ardnamurchan Paul Launois 2026 Release 57.4% ABV

Returning after the roaring success of this release’s previous incarnations, Ardnamurchan’s Paul Launois gives classic Highland single malt a twist with their Champagne cask recipe. This bottling was distilled in 2017, and matured for close to nine years before recieving it’s signature finish in e Champagne barriques from Paul Launois. The result is an unpeated liquid bottled at 57.4% abv, with a lovely, balanced character.

On the nose, expect orchard fruits. buttery honied pastries, and a subtle citrus twist. The palate is tangy with further citrus fruits, balanced by gentle spice. The finish sugary, salty, and fresh.
