BRUICHLADDICH PORT CHARLOTTE FEIS ILE 2024 ROCK'NDAAL 03.2 20YR 54% 700ML ISLAY SINGLE MALT SCOTCH WHISKY

Built by the Harvey brothers in 1881, Bruichladdich is situated on the Isle of Islay. For several years Bruichladdich was known as the local's drink of choice, and to many people's surprise, it is an unpeated dram. The distillery was in production from its opening until 1995 when it closed, it was shortly resurrected in 2001 when Murray McDavid purchased the distillery a year before. Since 2000, other variants from the distillery were released, courtesy of Master Distiller Jim McEwan, the medium-peated Port Charlotte inaugural bottling came in 2006 and the heavily-peated Octomore inaugural bottling came in 2008. In 2012 French drinks group Rémy Cointreau bought Bruichladdich. Towards the decade, plans for the distillery to build its maltings were unveiled and barley trials started to test sustainable farming practices. Released during Feis Ile 2024 as part of Bruichladdich's festival-themed distillery day 'Rock’ndaal', this single malt was distilled in 2003. Matured for 20 years on Islay in a combination of bourbon casks (70%) and first-fill Sauternes casks (30%). A limited edition of 1,500 bottles.
