Malt Of The Month May 2025 - Bholsa Islay Single Malt

Our Malt Of The Month is Bholsa Islay Single Malt

Sculpted by the elements, Islay’s breathtaking Bholsa Caves on its rugged north coast are a rich reward for those who venture off the beaten track. Inspired by these legendary caves, Ardnahoe Bholsa is a must-try for peat and sherry cask lovers.



Ardnahoe Bholsa has been matured predominantly in Oloroso sherry casks, and is bottled with no artificial colouring and no chill-filtration.

Tasting Notes:

  • Red fruits, walnuts, orange zest and peat smoke on the nose.
  • Raisins, dates and ripe plums on the palate
  • Underpinned by Islay peat lead into a long, peppery finish.
  • 50% ABV

Bholsa is priced at £60 incl. VAT and is available to purchase on the Ardnahoe website.
