]]> With Lochlea, the Scottish distillery landscape has recently grown to include an independent, family-run farm distillery. It is not only the former Laphroaig Distillery Manager and current Lochlea Production Director and Master Blender, John Campbell, who is responsible for the distinctive style of their single malt. As one of only four distilleries in Scotland, Lochlea uses only barley from its own cultivation and distils and matures its whisky on site. From the field to the bottle, Lochlea single malt is traceable – in keeping with the distillery’s motto, “Dare to be honest”.

]]> Bruichladdich 18 Years – 50% https://www.whizita.de/en/product/bruichladdich-18-years-50/ Mon, 25 Mar 2024 05:00:51 +0000 https://www.whizita.de/?post_type=product&p=157817 "We believe that you should taste the origins of a whiskey. In so many ways it can tell the story of its homeland, the barley and the water - and the people who brought it to life. Before 18 Years ago we were able to win over the first Islay farmer to grow barley on Islay, an important step for our terroir vision. The Eighteen has the soul of Islay, organic and Scottish mainland barley - that is exactly what we consider “high provenance”. None The only barrel filled for The Bruichladdich Eighteen ever left the island of Islay afterwards.

Every little detail - from the specific barley variety to the barrel maturity profile - is completely transparent and traceable. Over 50% of our barley is already grown on Islay
Nevertheless, we also rely on barley from our farmer on the Scottish mainland. Eighteen has the soul of Islay, organic and mainland Scottish barley, with each variety and harvest year fully traceable from farm to bottle.

TASTING NOTES
FRAGRANCE: Intense scent of ripe peach and honeysuckle with floral hints of violet and lavender. The counterpart for the perfect balance is embodied by sweet and spicy notes that are reminiscent of vanilla, coconut and charred oak. Over time, a mixture of tropical fruits with melon, peach, apricot and citrus comes to the fore; the long maturation time in the wood reinforces opulent hints of honey, caramel and crème brûlée.

TASTE: Very voluminous and almost viscous in texture. Honey, butterscotch and fresh fruit appear, followed by sweet oatmeal, barley sugar and toasted oak. The woody, spicy finish is reminiscent of tropical fruits with a touch of leather and honeycomb, which further enhance the sweet character of this special single malt."

AFTERMATH: The typical Bruichladdich character also comes through very clearly in the aftertaste. The Eighteen has the classic minerality of a Bruichladdich single malt, perfectly balanced with oak, stone fruit and a delicate floral bouquet.

]]> The distillery Bruichladdich, which means as much as ‘corner of the beach’ is the most essential distillery generally. It was built 1881 by the Harley Brothers. After the distillery was shut down for a period of time there was proclaimed on the 20th of December 2000 that it would be re-opened again. Already in May 2001 there came the first newmake out of the stills. The success of the distillery is closely connected with the activities of one of the most significant men in the whisky industry whose name is Jim McEwan. In 2012 the distillery once again changed its owner for 58 Million pounds and is now owned by Remy Cointreau.
