Bruichladdich Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky (1980's Bottling) 15 Year Old

Colour

Deep burnished amber with copper-gold highlights and a whisper of mahogany.

Nose

Opulent sherry-driven aroma with dried plum, fig and cherry, brightened by orange zest and toffee. Rich cocoa, vanilla and spice mingle with polished oak, while a whisper of sea-brine threads through the perfume, giving a refined Islay lift to this 15-year-old nose.

Palate

Bruichladdich delivers a silky, medium-bodied palate with sherry warmth. Dried fig and raisin mingle with orange zest, roasted almond and cocoa, folded into a creamy barley sweetness. Vanilla, light spice and a subtle maritime edge drift through, leaving a refined, lingering finish.

Finish

Opulent and lingering, the finish unfolds with sherried richness—dark fig, date and raisin—that waxes into cocoa, toasted almond and a touch of espresso. Subtle oak sweetness supports a whisper of sea breeze and spice, fading to a warm, polished glow that lingers gracefully.
