Bruichladdich Feis Ile 2011 - Renaissance Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky 9 Year Old · 2001 Vintage

Colour

Deep amber with copper-gold highlights.

Nose

Sherry-laden richness with a coastal lift: red-fruited depth, fig and orange zest mingle with polished oak and vanilla. A whisper of almond, cocoa and spice threads through sea-salt air, finishing in warm caramel and toffee.

Palate

Silky and full-bodied, the palate opens with sun-kissed raisin and orange zest, with fig and honeyed apricot. Sherry wraps the fruit in warm spice—cinnamon, clove, almond—as dark chocolate notes and a trace of espresso emerge through the mid-palate. The finish lingers with smoke, soft tannins, and an oak-honey sweetness that leaves a balanced, comforting warmth.

Finish

Long, luxurious finish of sherry-influenced sweetness—ripe raisin, fig and orange zest—melds with dark cocoa and toasted almond. A whisper of maritime smoke threads through oak spice, fading into velvety warmth and a final nutty echo.
