Savour the spirit of the west coast with Ardnamurchan Distillery.
Step into an evening of discovery as we welcome Carl Crafts, Sales Executive at Ardnamurchan Distillery to The Vaults for an intimate tasting that journeys deep into the soul of Scotland’s western edge.
From the distillery’s remote peninsula, where sea spray and mountain air shape the spirit, to the cask warehouses where Ardnamurchan’s character quietly matures, Carl's passion for place and flavour shines through every dram. Known for his warm, approachable style and depth of knowledge, Carl has guided tastings across the UK and beyond, inspiring both seasoned enthusiasts and curious newcomers.
On this special night, you’ll enjoy five hand-picked whiskies — a mix of Ardnamurchan’s acclaimed releases and rare Society bottlings — each revealing a different facet of the distillery’s signature style: gentle maritime influence, subtle smoke, honeyed sweetness, and layers of complexity. Alongside the drams, Carl will share the distillery’s commitment to sustainability, its innovative approach to cask selection, and the unique environmental tapestry that makes Ardnamurchan unlike anywhere else in Scotch whisky.
A Society supper is included. Please arrive at 6.50pm for a prompt 7pm start. For special arrangements or dietary requirements, contact vaults@smws.com.
