History,
We know of Bruichladdich these days for being quite ‘punk rock’ in their attitudes towards peating, casks, and general experimentation. As is always the case, this wasn’t the distillery’s MO for its entire life. From being founded in 1881, traded between individuals and small conglomerates, being closed on three separate occasions, and releasing twenty-eight limited edition bottles in its early rebirth, Bruichladdich has certainly been through the mill.
Something which remained true throughout most of Bruichladdich’s history was the low peating or sometimes lack of peating across their bottled stock. Through expressions such as Octomore, Port Charlotte, Lochindaal Bruichladdich have released more classic Islay expressions. Octomore includes the most heavily peated whiskies in the world.
Tasting Notes,
Nose: Butterscotch cocoa hazelnuts, banana prune dark raisins and biscuits. Salty air,
Palate: lychee, passion fruit melon and mango with choclate
