Description

Bruichladdich 2009 Cask Whisperer 9 Year Old First Release Despite having come out of retirement to take on a new challenge at Ardnahoe distillery on Islay, his enduring legacy (for the time being at least) is his success in rejuvenating the neighbouring Bruichladdich when it re-opened in 2001.

Nose
Opens beautifully on notes of crisp, sweet tasting barley and wild honey with just a hint of spice, almond and tannin. Then the rich plump aromas of the Amarone grapes evolve; disarming, inviting and bringing a brilliant fruit overture to the senses. The richness of the grapes succulent and sweet, underpinning the quality of the Scottish barley and the mellowness of oak.
Palate
The spirit is robust and full of passion as one would expect from a young Islay spirit. You can detect the marine influence which gives a light salty/lemon grapefruit flavour which brings a beautiful contrast to the red fruit notes of the Amarone. With its rich sweet red wine overtures, the Cinderella of Islay meets the Prince of Italy! The fruitiness of the semi dried grapes is the perfect foil for the marine influence of the sea. The cereal sweet barley in harmony with oak ensures that Islay's most elegant spirit is always in control of this amazing spiritual coming together.
Finish
It's warm, strong and mellow, just like the character of the Scots and the Italians - a rare beauty!
