History,
A heavily peated release from Bruichladdich Distillery is up now. This whisky has been matured in ex-Marsala casks - more precisely described as European oak ex-Sicilian wine casks. The casks had previously held this fortified wine for nine years.
The Port Charlotte 2009 9 YO MC:01 is a Travel Retail exclusive (remember back in the day when we could travel?).
Tasting Notes,
Nose: Concentrated, complex and balanced. This nose oozes quality. Sugary sweet, deeply fruity, softly smoky and peaty.
Taste: Full bodied and oily in character. Black and white pepper. Dry-ish oakiness. Deeply sweet.
Finish: Long finish. Peat, soot, ashes. Sugary yet not very sweet. Dry yet not quite juicy. Leather, cinnamon and nuts. Rich and complex sweetness in the end.
