Introduced as the flagship Port Charlotte expression produced by Bruichladdich in 2018, this 10 year old single malt from the Isle of Islay is a lip-smackingly smoky number indeed. It's 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.

Salted caramel brownie, flamed orange peel, a hearty whack of seaweed.

Oak-y smoke and salty sea air, paired with sweeter notes of Custard Cream biscuits and white grape.
FINISH
Ginger snaps, rye toast, drying peat smokiness.
