- Description
- The smallest release in Bruichladdich's Legacy series (820 bottles, 2005), this 32-year-old represents whisky inherited by the distillery's 2001 buyout team. Bottled at 47.5% ABV, the extended age has mellowed Islay's typical intensity into refined minerality and developing wood spice. A historically significant bottling marking the transition to the distillery's modern era.
