Bruichladdich
Scotland
Single Malt
Introduced as the flagship Port Charlotte expression produced by Bruichladdich in 2018, this 10 year old single malt from the Isle of Islay is a lip-smackingly smoky number indeed. It's peated to 40ppm, and drawn from a combination of first-fill American whiskey casks, second-fill American whiskey casks and second-fill French wine casks.
Salted caramel brownie, flamed orange peel, a hearty whack of seaweed.
Oak-y smoke and salty sea air, paired with sweeter notes of Custard Cream biscuits and white grape.
Ginger snaps, rye toast, drying peat smokiness.
Beautifully balanced delicious whisky. A hit at the Sidmouth Whisky Club (for those who enjoy the phenolics). We are trying the PMC heavily leafed for Xmas do
This does not taste like heavily peated,not a criticism, can taste the wine influence,to me heavily peated is Mactalla Mara or Smokehead High Voltage,this is more subtle,maybe some affinities with Port Askaig 8 yr old,nice all the same.
So much character and depth. You won't be disappointed.
Surprisingly balanced for a 10yo - only a hint of roughness at the short finish that made me wish it'd had a tiny bit more time. Nice inviting nose with that charred orange, and a silky body that's full of peat and oak, but without the dry edge - would be a great way to introduce this style to someone new to whisky. There's a bit of biscuit warmth, but this isn't a sweet expression by any means, just nicely balanced. Good stuff, though left me wanting more body and a longer finish.
Did a blind tasting against my other peaty favourite, the Laphroaig 10 sherry, and this came out tops. Similar nose to both of them but this was better with a lovely vanilla, honey palate coupled with a long sweet finish.
