Single Malt

Bourbon
We've bottled another terrific single malt from Islay's Bruichladdich distillery as part of our Single Cask Series! This one is a 15 year old expression, distilled in November 2001 (a good few months after the distillery reopened following a short period of inactivity) and matured in a bourbon hogshead until February 2017.
Nutty nougat, cherries, applewood smoke, pine resin and Lilt. Subtle salinity.
Oily hop and toasted teacake notes arrive first, before a slow rumble of charred oak-y spices appear. Tobacco leaf, tangy gooseberry and milk chocolate appear after a few minutes in the glass.
Rich tobacco again, now with cedar and a whisper of pineapple.
