Bruichladdich Distillery is a distillery on the Rhinns of the isle of Islay in Scotland.
The distillery produces mainly single malt Scotch whisky, but has also offered artisanal gin.
It is owned by Rémy Cointreau and is one of eight working distilleries on the island.
One interpretation of the Gaelic word Bruichladdich is "stony shore bank", referring to a post-glacial raised beach, though an alternative, perhaps more pertinent translation may be "rocky lee shore".
A 5cl miniature of Bruichladdich Single Malt bottled at 42.9% ABV.
Please note as this is a vintage whisky, conditions of bottle/label and liquid level can vary.
Nose: Fresh with fruit notes of orange peel and a touch of minerality. Then creaminess comes in, with lemon-meringue-pie aromas.
Palate: Again very fresh on the palate, with some subtle citrus notes. Next the rich creaminess takes over but despite the high ABV, adding water isn’t necessary here.
Finish: A tingling saltiness balances well with the rich, creamy notes.
