This is without doubt the most important release in Bruichladdichs' history, and very much a landmark for the distillery and the Bruichladdich team. It was an intensely emotional day, in the spring of 2001, when they first broke the padlock on the bruichladdich gates and took charge of this charismatic but much-neglected victorian distillery on the far west atlantic coast of islay.
This spirit, malted from only scottish barley for authenticity, slow-fermented for purity, trickle-distilled for creamy texture and cask-filled at 70% for extra flavor, has been quietly slumbering in the loch-side warehouses for the last 10 years.
''The first 10 year old distilled by the current owners back in 2001. Lovely marriage of both bourbon and sherry casks, and quite fresh, with a maturity resembling a 12 year old, rather than 10. Smooth on the palate, and very drinkable, with creamy vanilla, honeycomb, banana bread, bright lemon, melon (honeydew, cantaloupe), tangerine, candied ginger, and delicate brine. With all the Bruichladdich razzle-dazzle over the past decade, we can embrace this unpretentiously delicious Laddie with open arms.''
