Scotch Single Malt A-Z

Port Charlotte is the name given to heavily peated whisky from Bruichaddich distillery and this particular expression is the second batch of 10 year old they have released to date. First-fill bourbon, sherry, tempranillo and French wine casks were all utilised in maturing this exciting new release from hebridean distillers. Like its 10 year old unpeated brother, the cask influence has developed a deep hue and there is also hints of tropical fruit on the palate, this time though, intrigrating with the peat smoke character to form a full bodied and rich dram with a long peaty finish.

The Classic Laddie from Bruichladdich is made using unpeated barley, matured mostly in American Oak, ex-boubon barrels and french oak, bottled at 50%. A refreshing dram with a palate of green fruits, brown sugar and sweet oak along with those classic costal notes. Packaged in a very unusual aqua blue bottle to match a fresh and lively dram distilled by the sea.

This whisky from Bruichladdich is made from heavily peated barley that was entirely grown on Islay. This smoky Bruichladdich starts with earthy, tarred peat smoke on the nose. Lemon, grapes, and creamy vanilla notes follow. The palate has salty notes on the nose and lemon drops, ground white pepper, charcoal and apple sauce. Tar and brine are found on the finish along with coconut and tobacco notes.
