Nose

Sweet. Reminiscent of throat sweets, then nettle cordial and macaroons before the smoke begins to drift out. Light seashore aromas.

Palate

Burst of phenols to start, then parma violet. Concentrated and lightly perfumed. Hint of lavender. Silky and smooth with excellent length.

Finish

Ever lasting mixing smoke and vanilla.

Comment

A blend of lightly peated older laddie and some new heavily peated Port Charlotte it is typical for Islay, but atypical for Bruichladdich.
