- Description
- Bruichladdich's 2013 Bere Barley single malt is built on heritage grain — the oldest cultivated cereal strain still grown in Britain — matured for a decade in cask. The nose offers bright citrus peel and honeycomb sweetness, while the palate balances floral heather and peach tart against subtle marzipan notes, all delivered at a bracing 50% ABV. A whisky that speaks to terroir and agricultural tradition as much as distillery craft.
