Only 12 bottles of this curious Bruichladdich single cask are coming to KWM. Distilled in 2010 and matured 8 years in a Bourbon cask before bottling at 55.0%. Only 155 bottles released world-wide by German independent bottler Maltbarn.
Andrew's Tasting Note
Nose: honeyed and decadent, baklava; malty with a firm minerality; ozone; very malty, apple crumble with crisp cinnamon; fresh maritime air.
Palate: creamy, doughy and fruity; very sweet and malty; loads of honey, baklava and apple crumble with loads of cinnamon; oily with a good minerality and quite salty; chili-lime tortilla chips.
Finish: fresh, fruity and creamy with more decadent honey, baklava, spices and lime.
Comment: this feisty young lady didn't impress me on first tasting it, but having opened the bottle almost 24 hours ago the whisky has opened up nicely!
