• This is an Islay single grain Scotch whisky made from a mash bill of ~55% Islay-grown rye and ~45% Islay malted barley.

Tasting Notes

Nose (Aroma):

• Spicy and peppery: ground ginger and cracked black pepper.
• Warm baking spices: clove, cinnamon, nutmeg.
• Herbal undertones, with a hint of floral character.

Palate (Taste):

• Bold rye spice, especially peppery heat from the Islay-grown rye.
• Balanced by smooth honey and vanilla notes from the American oak.
• Slight oak creaminess and mellow grain influence.

Finish:

• Warming spice lingers, but finishes with Bruichladdich’s characteristic citrus note (a touch of brightness).
• Toasted oak in the background, offering a mellow but clear finish.
