Nose: Candle wax, floral touches (both honeysuckle freshness and more fragrant petals), sweet apple, vanilla cream and a bit of tropical fruit.
Palate: Very soft to start, with darker and heavier flavours developing on the palate - sharp woody spice (clove and cinnamon), dark wood bitterness, wood resin and charcoal, with a gentle syrup sweetness taking the edge off.
Finish: Fruity dark chocolate, apple skins, lingering woody spice with hints of the flowers from the nose.

The 15-year-old, 1994 Bruichladdich is a Scottish Islay single malt bottled at 40% ABV. Its character has an appealing contrast: a gentle, floral and apple-led nose gives way to darker wood, spice and charcoal on the palate, with syrup sweetness softening that turn. The finish brings back fruit and flowers alongside the woody spice. I find that shift more interesting than a uniformly sweet or floral style, though the wood bitterness may not suit every preference. A composed, distinctive profile, with enough tension between softness and darker notes to merit a strong score.
