Win Ardnamurchan AD/ Paul Launois 2026 Release – Champagne Meets the Highlands 99p each | Max 10 per person
Whisky finished in Champagne casks. Yes, you read that right. 57.4% ABV. Cask strength. Unpeated.
Ardnamurchan Distillery sits on one of Scotland’s most remote peninsulas, and they do things differently out there. Their collaboration with Champagne house Paul Launois has become one of the most sought-after releases in Scottish whisky – previous editions have sold out fast and now command serious premiums on the secondary market. The 2026 release is the fifth in the series and arguably the most refined yet.
Distilled in March 2017 and matured for almost nine years before finishing in Paul Launois Champagne barriques – custom-built oak casks used to ferment and age Champagne before making the journey to the Scottish Highlands. A small portion of bourbon cask whisky joins the blend, adding balance and fruit character. Non-chill filtered. Natural colour. Bottled at a punchy cask strength.
Boozy fruit, peach melba and tinned peaches on the nose, with toasted coconut, charred pineapple, crystallised ginger and Danish pastry. The palate delivers rhubarb, bread and butter pudding, candied salted cashews and orange rind with white chocolate richness. The finish is sumptuous, buttery and long.
Champagne cask whisky for 99p. That’s the kind of odds we like.
