Bruichladdich Micro Provenance Single Monbazillac Cask #2113 Whisky 2012 Vintage

Colour

Golden-amber with a honeyed warmth and subtle coppery shimmer.

Nose

Opulent, sun-warmed apricot and peach fuse with honeyed orange marmalade, lifted by Botrytis sweetness from the Monbazillac cask. Vanilla custard, toasted oak and almond paste weave through a silky, waxy texture, while a delicate sea-salt breeze and coastal iodine lend a maritime lift. Rich, decadent aromas promise syrupy richness tempered by poise and balance.

Palate

Opulent and full-bodied, the palate delivers honeyed apricot, poached mandarin and dried fig, all under a botrytized sweetness from the Monbazillac cask. Creamy vanilla, brown sugar and spice braid through a lush, oily texture. A coastal, saline lift threads the finish, which lingers long with warming cask sweetness and refined oak.

Finish

Opulent, lingering finish that coats the palate in honeyed botrytis and orange marmalade, with apricot and pear fruit unfolding into toasted almond and vanilla. A whisper of sea salt and old oak lends a savory edge, while gentle spice lingers, warming long after the last sip.
