[October, 2017]  ...a sherry cask matured whisky and a "Germany only" release - so I expect sulphur.  

Oooh, no sulphur!  Did they hear the bang or is this just by incident?  Actually it is a quite nice dram with the typical (light) Ardmore peatiness escorted by delicious sherry and barley sugary flavours.  All nicely balanced both in the nose and on the palate.  No flaws in the mouthfeel and finish that I can find.  The finish is long and sherry wine-sweet with nice peaty flavours that really pep it up.  Water turns the dram smoother and releases more aromas so I like it reduced better than neat.  Just the nose stays punchy even after water added...

I just had a 2cl sample because of my fears of sulphur but most probably I will get me a full bottle of this delicious stuff.  Well done, G&M!

Yes delicious. Amazingly little smoke for an Ardmore. Since the Portwood OA has much more. The sherry is very well integrated. The alcohol note comes to me but a little too much. It gets better with water. The high ratings in the base, I can not understand. Since I prefer to buy two bottles of Classic of Islay for the same price ...

I think Scheros description with "workshop" and "100 liters of sherry through exhaust" somehow pretty good. I would join that; However, it does not quite meet my taste.
I would probably rather resort to springbang 12er CS, if I want something dirty with sherry and bit of smoke.
but qualitasmäßig is already pretty good!
Edit: is getting better. My first assessment was premature. Now I would almost give him the 90th ... wait ...
