An exciting limited edition of Bruichladdich distillery's heavily peated spirit, made with Scottish Barley and fully matured on Islay. The whisky has aged for over 18 years, primarily sourced from first fill bourbon (53%) and second fill sherry casks (31%). A small parcel of the malt (16%) was matured in sherry casks, then virgin french oak, and then second fill bourbon casks.

Tasting Notes

Official Tasting Notes

Colour – Golden syrup.

Nose – Dried fruits are immediate on the nose, with the aroma of figs, sultanas and raisins mingling with sweet smoke and mellow oak. As the whisky breathes, charred oak, tobacco and earthy heather come to the fore, complimenting the delicate sweetness of caramel, toffee and date syrup.

Palate – Luxuriously smooth in texture, dark brown sugar, apricot jam and sweet heather honey coat the palate. This initial sweetness is punctuated by Port Charlotte’s signature peat smoke, with the subtle influence of toasted oak adding depth and complexity. The earthy, barbeque smoke adds a savoury element, beautifully balanced with rich crème brûlée, hazelnut and toasted coconut. A subtle minerality not only nods to the whisky’s all-Islay maturation but adds a hint of salt, cutting through the sweetness.

Finish – Wood spices, smoked leather and a subtle nutty salinity settle on the finish, while the inimitable whisper of Port Charlotte peat smoke lingers.
