Bruichladdich XVII 1st Edition 17 Year Old, Bourbon, Fino Sherry & Oloroso Sherry Cask, 2005, 46%

A Maltiply member's tasting notes and whisky impression.

88 / 100

There is a clear contrast here: a gentle, soft nose gives way to a rounded, creamy palate, while the finish stays fresh and crisp. It sounds richer through the middle than at the opening, with oak spice and ginger alongside the sweetness.
