- Description
- Bruichladdich's medium-peated Islay character emerges clearly in this Lochindaal expression, a decade spent in first-fill bourbon cask from 2010 to 2021, with 270 bottles released under the Auld Goonsy's Malt label. Expect brine and distant smoke balanced against sweet vanilla, caramel, and a gentle fruitiness from the virgin wood. The texture is oily and coating, with smoke that builds rather than dominates the finish. This suits Islay enthusiasts seeking restraint—approachable enough for newcomers to peated whisky, complex enough for veterans.
