Bruichladdich 15 Year Old 2005 (cask 1405) - The Red Cask Co.
A 15 year old single malt from the Bruichladdich Distillery on Islay, and a rather well-sherried one at that! It was distilled in 2005 and matured in a first-fill sherry hogshead until 2021, when it was bottled up by The Red Cask Co. at cask strength – a hefty 63.1% ABV. A total of 295 bottles were produced.
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Fruit cake, dense vanilla and raisin, with hints of dusty oak developing later on.
Palate
Hugely chocolatey, plus more dried fruit and a waft of cigar box.
Finish
Cassia, cinnamon, dark chocolate, and menthol.
