Whisky: Liquid History

 
  Lot 46
 

BRUICHLADDICH REDDER STILL

BRUICHLADDICH REDDER STILL

Single malt.

Given Islay’s peaty reputation, the assumption might be that the islanders themselves favour big smoky whiskies. However, it’s actually Bruichladdich with its traditionally unpeated style that has earned the reputation as the local favourite.

It’s only relatively recently that the distillery has dabbled in peated whisky with their Port Charlotte range, as well as the ultra-heavily peated Octomore releases.

Distilled: 1984

Bottled: 2007

Matured in Bourbon casks before being transfered into Chateau Lafleur Pomerol Bordeaux casks for additional cask enhancement.

Bottle Number: 2328 / 4080

50.4% ABV / 70cl
