Bruichladdich Organic Barley 2012 70cl Whisky

Another top edition of Bruichladdich The Organic. A vintage 2012 single malt, it was made with 100% unpeated Scottish barley, the Publican variety, grown at Mid Coul farm. It was aged in 100% first-fill bourbon barrels to preserve as much of the flavour of the grain as possible and was bottled at 50% ABV.

Mid Coul farm is close to Inverness in the north of Scotland and has been growing organic barley for the Islay distillery since 2003 on its progressive 2,755-acre estate. The site boasts a closed-loop fertility system that generates electricity using an anaerobic digester. Almost all waste material is recycled as fertiliser, while the barley is sustainably farmed without agrochemicals, fertilisers, or pesticides and supports the soil it was grown in.
