Bruichladdich Micro Provenance Single Cask #035 Whisky 17 Year Old · 1992 Vintage

Colour

Deep amber with coppery highlights and a mahogany sheen.

Nose

Sherry-drenched fruit opens the nose - ripe fig, prune and orange zest - over warm, polished oak. Dark chocolate and toffee weave through, with a subtle almond paste note and a hint of spice. Sea air and a whisper of iodine add marine brightness, keeping sweetness buoyant. The aroma hints at 17 years in a single cask, a poised Islay elegance with quiet refinement.

Palate

Rich, full-bodied palate with opulent sherry sweetness—dates, fig and raisin—balanced by dark chocolate, roasted almond and a whisper of caramel. Coastal brine merges with a delicate peat echo, delivering a warm, multi-layered spine that lingers with spice, leather and cocoa on a long, drying finish.

Finish

An extended finish of sherried richness, where dark fruit, cocoa and orange peel unfurl over a whisper of sea salt. Oak and spice deepen with time, leaving a warm, peppery fade that lingers long on the palate, a maritime echo from Islay.
