Ardgowan "Clydebuilt Anchorsmith" 46% Blended Scotch Whisky 70cl
Some of the greatest ships in the world were built on the Clyde, and the phrase ‘Clydebuilt’ came to capture this tradition of building with precision, integrity and pride. Clydebuilt Whisky is a limited edition collection of meticulously crafted whiskies inspired by this tradition.
Clydebuilt Anchorsmith is the fifth and penultimate bottling in the award-winning Clydebuilt Collection. It is a unique, limited edition blended malt combining six distinctive whiskies from Lowland, Speyside, and Highland distilleries. Each of these whiskies was fully matured in first-fill oloroso sherry casks before being handpicked by master whisky maker Max McFarlane.
No added colour and non chill-filtered.

Tasting Notes
Nose: Well-balanced and distinctive, with notes of black cherries, lemon drizzle cake, chocolate raisins, sesame oil and sticky figs and dates.
Palate: Full-bodied, floral and plummy - awash with ripe dark fruits, roast chestnuts, pomegranate juice and overripe bananas.
Finish: Long and lightly tannic with Earl Grey tea and orange marmalade.
Ardgowan Distillery
Great Single Malt Scotch whisky requires four ingredients: fresh spring water, malted barley, yeast and, of course, time. Ardgowan Distillery is a group of Scotch Whisky enthusiasts who feel that many distilleries, often because of pressure from shareholders, are in too much of a rush to get their spirit to market. That’s why they came together to form The Ardgowan Distillery Company - an independent whisky maker with a respect for tradition, a passion for innovation, and a firm commitment to giving every drop of spirit the time that it takes to make a good whisky great.
The Ardgowan estate is the site of a natural spring which provides water of exceptional purity and sweetness. It is also close to the sea and the warming effects of the Gulf Stream. All of which makes it the perfect place to produce an exceptional Single Malt with distinctive maritime characteristics.
Whilst they await completion of their flagship state-of-the-art carbon-negative distillery and the first distillation of their own spirit in 2024, they are sourcing and laying down Malt Whisky from all across Scotland. They select the casks and carefully curate them, only bottling when ready, at a minimum of 46% ABV, natural colour and not chill-filtered.
