Bruichladdich Port Charlotte 18 Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky – 70cl

TASTING NOTES

Color  : Hazel.

Nose :  Notes of dried fruit, figs, sweet sultanas and raisins immediately open on the nose, followed by soft smoke and mellow oak. As the whisky opens further it reveals leathery notes of tobacco and burnt heather, with marine-tinged smoke balanced with cinder toffee and date syrup.

Palate :  Gentle and beautifully balanced, the whisky is predominantly sweet and fruity on the palate with dried dark fruits and chocolate. The influence of the oak is mellow with warm toasted spices, cinnamon, gingerbread and nutmeg coming to the fore. Orange citrus, cinder toffee and honey complement the soft, smoked grain, with notes of peat-infused scones, smoked popcorn and salted caramel.

Finish :  Wood spices, smoked leather and a subtle nutty salinity round off the complex dram, while soft peat smoke lingers.

ABV 54.3%
