- Description
- Bruichladdich's unpeated 2005 distillate, matured 15 years in a single bourbon barrel and bottled by Chorlton Whisky, expresses the distillery's floral, grassy baseline without peat or wine cask influence. The bourbon cask provides subtle vanilla and wood spice, allowing the spirit's delicate citrus, herb, and orchard fruit to emerge clearly. A rare independent release of just 146 bottles shows Islay's lighter side. Perfect for those exploring unpeated Islay character in its purest, cask-unadorned form.
