Port Charlotte Heavily Peated SC: 01 - 2012

Special features: This limited single malt whisky from the renowned Bruichladdich distillery on Islay was distilled in 2012 from 100% Islay barley and matured for over nine years in a combination of sherry casks, first- and second-fill American whiskey casks, and finally in Sauternes wine casks. Bottled at a robust 55.2% ABV and with a phenol content of 40 ppm, it presents itself as an intensely peaty representative of the Port Charlotte range.

Tasting Notes:

• Nose: A pronounced aroma of dark fruits, accompanied by juicy peach and distinct peat smoke, complemented by floral undertones.
• Palate: Full-bodied yet smooth, a strong peatiness unfolds, underpinned by notes of coconut, blossom honey, and heather.
• Finish: Very long and warm, with a slightly mineral peat smoke that lingers in the mouth.
