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.

This is an excellent example of the Port Charlotte range. Smooth but with a bite.
I have just finished a bottle of this, and I will be replacing it very soon. After pouring I find in the first few sips a TCP taste hits me first, but after time in the glass I find that disappears and it becomes a smooth, tarry, smoky whisky. I find it very moreish, which is probably why the bottle didn't last long!
Best bang for your buck if you like peat!
Sometimes put off by heavily peated but this gorgeous stuff so glad I tried it, new favourite to add to my list. Will buy again
You want peaty smoke, seaweed & citrus? You get it all, here. This is a monster of a dram, one to appreciate. Chewy neat, yet smooth with just a few drops of fresh, cool water. Definitely a bottle I'll be buying again!
