The Islay distillery Bruichladdich, whose name means “beach corner”, was built in 1881 by the Harley brothers. After the distillery had been closed for some time, it was announced on 20 December 2000 that it would soon be back in operation. The first new make flowed from the stills in May 2001. Bruichladdich’s success is closely linked to the work of one of the most important men in the Scottish whisky scene \u2013 Jim McEwan.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
An 18-year-old Bruichladdich from 2007, matured in a classic bourbon barrel. This type of cask brings out the pure DNA of the distillery: vanilla, citrus, light fruits, maritime freshness \u2013 an elegant, clear and precise Bruichladdich, just as connoisseurs love it. At 56.9% ABV, it is intense but balanced.
\nThe lion motif stands for courage, dominance and regal presence \u2013 perfect for a whisky that exudes confidence with its maturity and clarity.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":179351,"template":"","meta":[],"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[2340,2258,2851,2508,10242,2204,2276,2170],"product_tag":[],"class_list":["post-179416","product","type-product","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","product_cat-bruichladdich-en","product_cat-distilleries-en","product_cat-independent-bottlers","product_cat-islay-en","product_cat-regions","product_cat-scotland-en","product_cat-single-malt-en","product_cat-whisky-en","pa_bottling_date-2025-en","pa_cask_type-bourbonbarrel-en","pa_country-schottland-en-2","pa_destillation_age-18-en","pa_destillation_date-2007-en-2","pa_region-islay-en","pa_whisky_bottler-svenska-eldvatten-ab-en","pa_whisky_bottler_series-keine-angabe-en-2","first","instock","taxable","shipping-taxable","purchasable","product-type-simple"],"yoast_head":"\n
