The Cargill (Ardnamurchan and Cardrona Fusion) / 5 Year Old / Adelphi Blended Whisky brings together single-cask whisky from two distinctive distilleries, creating a lively and characterful blend that offers excellent value for curious whisky drinkers.

Presented in a generous 70cl bottle and bottled at 57.4% ABV, this five-year-old blended malt delivers a bold drinking experience without the need for a premium-age price tag. It is an inviting choice for anyone who wants to explore full-flavoured whisky while keeping an eye on value.

A Meeting of Two Distinctive Distilleries

This expression combines whisky from Ardnamurchan with whisky from Cardrona, the Kiwi distillery known for producing fruit-led spirits. The result is a fascinating fusion of contrasting styles. Ardnamurchan contributes a coastal, peated character, while Cardrona adds fruitier notes shaped by maturation in pinot noir barriques.

Rather than following a single familiar flavour profile, this whisky brings together smoky coastal influence and sweeter, fruit-forward character. Each side adds something different, helping to create a dram that feels layered, energetic, and rewarding to explore.

Why This Whisky Offers Excellent Value

• Distinctive blended malt character: A carefully combined profile with both peated and fruity influences.
• Impressive strength: Bottled at 57.4% ABV for a powerful and expressive pour.
• Generous 70cl format: A practical bottle size for sharing, tasting, or adding to a home whisky collection.
• Five years old: A youthful whisky with plenty of energy and character at an accessible stage of maturity.
• Two distilleries in one bottle: Explore the contrast between Ardnamurchan and Cardrona without buying separate bottles.
• Adelphi presentation: A trusted name for whisky enthusiasts seeking interesting and individual expressions.

A Bold Pour for Curious Drinkers

The Cargill is well suited to drinkers who enjoy whisky with a little more intensity. At 57.4% ABV, it has the strength to stand out in the glass, while a small splash of water can help open the whisky and reveal more of its coastal, smoky, and fruity character.

Its combination of peat and fruit makes it a versatile addition to a collection. It can appeal to fans of smoky whisky who want to try something less expected, as well as those who usually prefer sweeter, fruitier expressions and are ready to explore a touch of coastal influence.

It is also a smart option for informal tastings. The contrast between the two distilleries gives drinkers something to discuss, compare, and revisit. For the cost of one bottle, you can enjoy a whisky built around two very different production styles.

Easy to Enjoy, Interesting to Discuss

Serve it neat to experience its full intensity, or add a few drops of water to soften the strength and encourage the flavours to develop. It can also be enjoyed alongside food, particularly dishes with smoky, savoury, or fruit-based elements.

Whether it is being poured for friends, offered as a thoughtful gift, or added to a growing whisky shelf, The Cargill provides a memorable experience without relying on an old age statement or complicated presentation. Its appeal comes from the balance of distinctive whisky styles, strong bottling strength, and approachable value.
