Named after the ancient Islay farmstead of Bholsa, this expression is distilled using classic peated malt and natural water drawn from nearby Loch Ardnahoe. Bottled at a robust strength without chill-filtration or added colour, the whisky showcases the benefit of slow distillation and traditional worm-tub condensers. It serves as a spectacular dram for those who appreciate authentic Islay peat smoke, best enjoyed neat or with a splash of fresh spring water.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe aromatic profile opens with an intense blast of maritime peat smoke, damp sea kelp, and driftwood bonfire, underpinned by bright top notes of lemon oil, vanilla pod, and crisp green apple. On the palate, this single malt delivers a full-bodied, oily texture that coats the mouth with sweet flavours of smoked barley, salted caramel, and charcuterie, beautifully offset by peppered oak spice and clean citrus zest. The tasting experience finishes long, warming, and complex, leaving a lingering, satisfying trail of dry campfire smoke, dark chocolate, and maritime salinity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHailing from Ardnahoe Distillery, Islay's ninth operating distillery founded by the renowned Hunter Laing family, this release represents a harmonious blending of modern vision and time-honoured Scottish tradition. Set against the backdrop of the Sound of Islay, the distillery features Oregon pine washbacks and Scotland's only wooden worm tubs, ensuring a heavy, characterful spirit with immense depth. By combining traditional crafting techniques with Islay's distinctive coastal terroir, Ardnahoe continues to produce world-class single malts celebrated for their richness, purity, and peat smoke intensity.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ardnahoe Distillery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54977165721943,"sku":"123096","price":61.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0899\/6824\/7127\/files\/Ardnahoe-Bholsa-Islay-Single-Malt-Whisky-70cl.jpg?v=1789379866","url":"https:\/\/www.drinkfinder.co.uk\/products\/ardnahoe-bholsa-islay-single-malt-whisky-70cl","provider":"Drink Finder","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
