Single Malt
Scotland
1 Jan 2012
This is the 2012 vintage of Bruichladdich's Islay Barley single malt Scotch whisky! As the name suggests, this expression is made using barley that grown on the Hebridean island which Bruichladdich calls home. The distillery works with farms across the island to source the barley, which is distilled, matured and bottled up at 50% ABV.
Waxy orange peels, nutty malt, soft wafts of rock pool aroma and some fresh peaches.
Vanilla wafers, sugared almonds, oatcakes, a hint of buttered bread and spring blossom.
Soft hints of spicy oak develop later on, mellowed by mint chocolate and walnut loaf.

very nice on the pallet, very smooth.
A really well balanced 8yr old with soft nutty malt, fruit, spice and floral in equal measure. Quite complex actually, I can't stop sniffing it! "Un-chill filtered and colouring-free" stated on the bottle, and 50% ABV. Plenty of flavour. Really good. Really interesting. Doesn't need water.
