This exceptional spirit is a harmonious marriage of over 20 single malt whisky casks meticulously selected from the Scottish Highlands, with the oldest malts aged up to 21 years. Presented in a striking gold and blue iteration of Usquaebach's iconic ceramic flagon, this limited-production release is bottled at a powerful cask strength of 57.1% ABV. The final blend is finished in exquisite sherry casks, adding a sophisticated layer of depth and structure that captures the true essence of the Highlands without the addition of grain whiskies to soften its regal power.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe sensory journey begins with an evocative nose of raw cacao, toasted almonds, and dark cherries, underpinned by subtle notes of freshly baked pastries and a hint of smoke. Upon the palate, this full-bodied whisky unfolds with a complex tapestry of dark fudge, worn leather, and sherried wood, offering a rich and velvety texture that is as profound as it is refined. The experience concludes with a luxurious, lingering finish of dark chocolate and hazelnut praline, accented by delicate spices and sweet oak. Best enjoyed neat in a proper nosing glass with a few drops of purified water, 'An Ard Ri' stands as a testament to the artistry of small-batch spirits and the timeless heritage of one of Scotland's oldest whisky names.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Usquaebach","offers":[{"title":"750 ml","offer_id":46259061293253,"sku":"VWS_7683","price":178.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0746\/2404\/1157\/files\/UsquaebachCaskStrengthBlendedMaltScotch750ml.png?v=1783800186","url":"https:\/\/shopbuzzed.com\/products\/usquaebach-cask-strength-blended-malt-scotch-750-ml","provider":"Shop Buzzed","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
