Description

Mothballed by previous owners Whyte & Mackay, Bruichladdich distillery was revived in the year 2000 by indy bottler Murray McDavid. For a long time the distillery was the black sheep of Islay, on account of producing unpeated whisky in order to meet its owner's blending requirements. Contrary to general expectations though, this also made it a hit with the locals who were presumably sick of the si ... This is the eighth release in Bruichladdich's 'Links' series, depicting a hole from the Torrey Pines golf course in the USA. It has seen additional cask enhancement in a Chateau Latour Bordeaux Cask.

Nose
Crisp, fruity, estery. Garden fresh aromas of rose petals, jasmine and grain; elements of spice, newly tanned leather, citrus and grapes.
Palate
Full, cereal notes abound, barley, porridge oats. Lovely fruit. Sublime balance. Wonderfully floral, fruity and winey; spicy notes that complement the assertive grainy alcohol. Extremely rich and very balanced in flavour.
Finish
Good length, dryness, toasty vanilla, spicy oak. Medium-long, astringent, crisp, winey and satisfying. Rich and smooth.
