Port Charlotte Islay Barley 2013
At Bruichladdich they believe that an “Islay” whisky should live and breathe the fresh salt tang of Islay air, all its life. Because of this they made sure that the Port Charlotte was not only distilled on Islay, but also matured and bottled on the stunning island. This is a a whisky made by people, not software; a whisky watched over every day of its maturing life by those who made it; a whisky born of a community, of a vision and a burning desire to kick start a single malt whisky revolution.
The barley harvest for this 2013 vintage was raised on our home shores in 2012 by seven of our Islay farming partners. Hunter Jackson at Cruach, Ian McKerrell at Island farm, Raymond Fletcher at Dunlossit estate, Donald and Andrew Jones at Coull, Mark French at Rockside, Alastair Torrance at Mulindry and Raymond Stewart at Sunderland all undertook the risk of growing in challenging conditions to deliver the barley for this Scotch whisky with unparalleled provenance.
This Port Charlotte Islay Barley 2013 single malt has been matured in ex-American and ex-wine casks hailing from the Pessac-Leognan region of France. Heavily peated and malted to 40 PPM, this eight-year-old single malt pays homage to its island home.
With redberry fruits, toasted oak notes and hints of coffee and chocolate, it offers a dramatic, smoky finish.
