Bruichladdich 18 Year Old
Bruichladdich 18 year old is the embodiment of the distillery's signature unpeated style. Matured exclusively on Islay for eighteen years, primarily in ex-bourbon casks with a touch of wine casks, this single malt Scotch whisky offers a full-bodied and fragrant experience. The nose opens with hints of honey, butterscotch, and citrus orange, while the palate lingers with a medley of tropical fruits and mellow toasted oak. This whisky represents Bruichladdich's commitment to provenance, with every element – from the barley varietals to the casks – fully traceable.
Elements of Islay Bw8 51.2% 50cl
A multi-layered Bowmore is a vatting of whiskies distilled between 2001 and 2003. Left to rest and age in ex-bourbon barrels and ex-sherry butts for 16 to 18 years, it showcases its classic and true Islay character through a window of tropical fruits and coastal freshness. Overall you will find citrus, tropical fruits, coastal brine and smoke. The nose showcases grapefruit mixed amongst notes of brown sugar. A hint of charcoal smoke with baked lemons that develop into a richer, more pronounced tropical note of under-ripe mango! The palate is old-fashioned chocolate limes. Citrus and salt blend perfectly together and form a rather rich fruit note of papaya and kiwi. The finish is dry, herby and the finish lingers with a wave of kiln smoke. Only 1320 bottles produced!
