Description

Mothballed by previous owners Whyte & Mackay, Bruichladdich distillery was revived in the year 2000 by independent 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 ... This special release was created for the Islay Festival in 2024 as part of Bruichladdich's festival-themed distillery day 'Rock'ndaal'. It was distilled in 2003 and matured for 20 years on Islay in a combination of bourbon casks (70%) and first-fill Sauternes casks (30%). A limited edition of 1,500 bottles.

Nose
Opens with an incredibly creamy peat smoke, a mixture of gentle log fires, slightly over-baked buttery french pastries, dustings of icing sugar and soft peaches. Freshly cut mango slices, and something slightly musty and fermented like apricots.
Palate
A powerful mixture of ashy peat and brown sugar sweetness, with a real warming alcohol backbone. Subtle ginger spice with a hint of lemon. Tangerines, cinder toffee, more dried mango and apricot, and a bit of runny honey.
Finish
Port Charlotte's smoke is predominant as peat fire embers linger, with a sweet hint of dried mango and milk chocolate. Charred oak, raisin cake, ashy peat and tropical fruits all mingling together.
