"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.

A mysterious work of art from the symbiosis of nature, craftsmanship and time. What is inside each Barrels happened in the dark of the warehouses remains a mystery. Black Art 10 is the expression of these unfathomable processes. The rare casks all date from the time before the Bruichladdich distillery reopened and therefore matured on the Hebridean island of Islay for almost three decades before they were secretly married by head distiller Adam Hannett. Only Adam knows what went into creating this precious 29-year-old single malt. He enjoys full trust and complete freedom. Barley, cask types and composition remain his secret.

Unpeated and matured in the finest oak, this tenth edition of Black Art is a perfect fusion of confidence and creativity.

After a while, iodine, coconut with spicy ginger and cinnamon come to mind. The texture appears incredibly soft and velvety.

For the first time in the Cask Exploration series, the Port Charlotte SYC: 01 was matured mainly in Syrah barrels. The French producer shares our philosophy and passion for the terroir and has specialised in the production of organic and biodynamic wines, in which the soil and climate have a decisive influence on the process. Minimal intervention allows the different regions and soils to reveal their true character, making the wines - much like our Islay single malt whiskies - a truly authentic expression of their terroir. The Syrah, a red wine known for its powerful and full and full body, has given SYC: 01 rich notes of red fruits and layers of spice that complement the characteristic aromatic peat smoke of Port Charlotte. peat smoke of Port Charlotte. Nose: The sweetness of caramel is immediately apparent on the nose, followed by a blend of fresh fruit and a subtle hint of peat smoke. Notes of strawberries, red apples, apricot jam and mixed berries from the Syrah casks come to the fore, underpinned by a combination of oak and lingering smoke. Gentle spices from the oak together with ginger, marzipan and honey complement the fruity character, which is further enhanced by the oak smoked over the fire. Flavour: Toasted oak and elegant barbecue smoke envelop the palate, beautifully balanced with sweet fruit. Vibrant notes of candied peel, fresh mango, brown sugar and sweet chewing gum add lightness and complexity that cut through the smoke. A drop of water brings out the aromatic oak, while lavender and herbal notes combine with gentle honey, ground ginger and roasted coffee beans. Finish: While the sweetness of fruit and oak remains, a gentle wave of peat smoke is unmistakable on the finish. Roasted Brazil nuts, coconut and cocoa powder lend a delicate creaminess, while a hint of dried seaweed lingers.
