Bruichladdich The Classic Laddie

Volume: 700ml / ABV: 50%

Bruichladdich's flagship unpeated single malt release, made with 100% Scottish barley. It's also bottled at a hearty 50% ABV, which is a chunk higher than equivalent releases from almost any other distillery (usually 40-46%). This bottling strength is said to help bring the barley notes to the fore. Head Distiller Adam Hannett works with an ever-increasing range of casks aged alongside Lochindaal as well as changing profiles and varieties of carefully traced barley to put together a refreshing whisky with the signature fruity and floral Bruichladdich house style.

Tasting Note

Nose

Elegantly sweet with honey'd barley, boiled sweets and orange petals. Wafts of sea air.

Palate

Red apples and white grapes, with touches of sweet cinnamon and brown sugar. Still softly coastal.

Finish

Mineral-rich malt, with toffee and more honey.
