Bourbon
We got our hands on a brilliant Bruichladdich and bottled it up for our Single Cask Series! This one was distilled back in November 2003 on the Isle of Islay, and left to age in a bourbon barrel for 13 years before being bottled in January 2017. Weighing in at a robust 60.5 ABV, this one can stand a few drops of water.
Cinder toffee, Jamaican ginger cake, cinnamon and a touch of polished hardwoods. Floral honey, green apple and stone fruit underneath.
Oranges, dried fruit and a little overripe peach make things juicy at first. A spicy, peppery quality moves into the mid-palate with some herbaceous undertones, before oysters, cured meat, a little iodine and some ashy smoke rounds things off.
More smoke emerges among cold black tea, black olives and stem ginger.
