This edition offers a unique twist on Bruichladdich’s signature unpeated Classic Laddie. While maintaining the distillery’s hallmark citrus and floral notes, it undergoes additional maturation in Oloroso sherry casks sourced from Fernando de Castilla in Jerez, Spain. This finishing imparts a richer, more complex character to the whisky.
Distilled, matured, and bottled exclusively on Islay, the whisky is presented at 50% ABV and is non-chill filtered with no added colouring.
In line with Bruichladdich’s commitment to sustainability, the packaging incorporates several eco-friendly features. The bottle is made from 60% recycled glass and is 32% lighter than its predecessor, resulting in a 65% reduction in CO₂ emissions. Additional sustainable elements include a polypropylene closure, a cork made from bio-based sources, and an organic ink coating.
Tasting Notes:
Bruichladdich’s signature citrus and floral style enhanced with rich dried fruits, oak spices, and toasted almond
Nose: Gentle floral scents open on the nose, followed by light fruit notes of apple and apricot. There is a soft nutty character with hints of citrus orange, honey, sweet vanilla and a subtle minerality nodding to Bruichladdich’s signature style. The sherry casks bring dried fruit, rich nutty aromas and oak spices, beautifully enhancing the fruit laden character of the spirit
Taste: The palate is soft and incredibly viscous. The delicate balance of various spirit types, ages and cask types – used to create Bruichladdich’s signature house style - has found an extra dimension with its sherry cask maturation, adding dried fruits, dates, orange peels and baked bananas in brown sugar. The sherry cask influence complements notes of ripe apricot, pear, malt sugar and smooth vanilla custard from the American oak.
A drop of water adds another layer of depth, with tropical fruit, light citrus and gentle marine notes
"So I think where I’m going to pitch the Sherry Cask Edition is as thus: if you are a Bruichladdich fan and love their character, fancy a bit of sherry spiced Laddie and have the ability to get outside of the UK imposed tax increase at airports, then go for it ... it’s a really good one." - Dougie Crystal, Dramface
