Single Malt
Scotland
1 Jan 2012
Produced from the 2011 harvest of heritage bere barley supplied by the Agronomy Institute of Orkney College, distilled at Bruichladdich in 2012, this superb unpeated single malt from the Islay distillery spent ten years maturing in oak casks before bottling. A cracking opportunity to sample a whisky distilled from this ancient barley strain resurrected from the days of old.
Vegetal zest and oaken vanilla lead the way with crisp apple and orchard honey.
Chewy malt, poached pear and apple, buttered tea cakes and juicy stone fruits are followed by spiced vanilla and salted caramel.
Fruit crumble lingers with dustings of sugar and malted biscuits, with distant coastal salinity and pithy citrus peels.
