Bruichladdich Feis Ile 2010 - Valinch Rum Cask Single Malt Scotch Whisky 20 Year Old · 1989 Vintage

Colour

A rich, luminous amber with copper-gold highlights and a mahogany undertone, like sunset on aged rum and oak.

Nose

Aromas of sun-warmed tropical fruit, coconut and treacle-drenched vanilla pour from the glass, laced with orange zest and dried fruit. Rich hints of toffee, spice and creamy oak unfold, while a whisper of salty Islay air adds a marine lift to the rum-cask character.

Palate

Opulent and velvety, the palate opens with tropical fruit, coconut and vanilla from the rum cask, entwined with luscious toffee and dark chocolate. Rich dried fruit, spice and creamy oak weave a maritime kiss, while peppery warmth from the 55.5% carries through a long, decadent finish.

Finish

Long, luxurious and warming, the finish unfolds with Caribbean rum-cask sweetness—molasses, dried fruit, vanilla—and toasted spice, tied to oak tannins and a hint of cocoa. A maritime whisper lingers as the warmth slowly fades into a soft, lingering glow.
