Built in 1881 by William, John and Robert Harvey, Bruichladdich (pronounced brook-laddie) distillery sits opposite the western shore of Loch Indaal on Islay, an island off the west coast of Scotland. Bruichladdich, who describe themselves as “progressive Hebridean distillers,” are proud to be non-conformist and to do things a little differently. This modern approach is juxtaposed against their traditional and local values: maturing and bottling all their spirit on the island, using only Scottish-produced barley and retaining Victorian-era equipment, including the only open-topped mash tun on Islay and the last remaining belt-driven mill in Scotland. Made with 100% Scottish barley and matured in the village of Port Charlotte, this ten-year-old was introduced in 2018 as Bruichladdich’s flagship Port Charlotte expression; it is peated to 40ppm and drawn from a combination of first-fill American whiskey casks, second-fill American whiskey casks, and second-fill French wine casks. There is oaky smoke and salty sea air on the palate and a finish of rye toast and drying peat smokiness.
