Whiskies (31)

Adelphi Bruichladdich 13 Years Old
Single Malt - Scotland - 40.00% 7 Interesting, but not typical.

Adelphi Bruichladdich 30 Years Old
Single Malt - Scotland - 49.40% 7 It is more substantial than people think, as this bottling shows.

Bruichladdich 'Islands' Third Edition, 20 Years Old
Single Malt - Scotland - 46.00% 7 Surely a finish, but I couldn't quite place the influence, despite it having the malt in a half-nelson. Curious, but I liked it.

Bruichladdich 10 Years Old
Single Malt - Scotland - 46.00% 7 Very slightly spirity, but appetising.

Bruichladdich 10 Years Old
Single Malt - Scotland - 46.00% 8 Not only the liveliness of youth but also the least wood influence. The use of second-fill casks leaves the fruity flavours of Bruichladdich to express themselves more freely.

Bruichladdich 10 Years Old
Single Malt - Scotland - 46.00% 8 Laddie reaches 10 in good shape.

Bruichladdich 15 Years Old
Single Malt - Scotland - 46.00% 8 More rounded and restrained than I remember, but lots of flavour development in that long middle. Bring on the Islay oysters.

Bruichladdich 15 Years Old Limited Edition
Single Malt - Scotland - 54.00% 7 The nose puts you off, the palate tries to make it up but the result is not exciting.

Bruichladdich 15 Years Old, (JBB Bottling)
Single Malt - Scotland - 46.00% 7 An easily drinkable yet satisfying malt. Has definitely benefited from the extra five years.

Bruichladdich 1970
Single Malt - Scotland - 44.20% 8 Lively, expressive, enjoyable.

Bruichladdich 1984 Vintage
Single Malt - Scotland - 46.00% 7 A more familiar Islay style, with plenty of pep.

Whisky Magazine - Editors Choice - Winner

Bruichladdich 20 Years Old
Single Malt - Scotland - 46.00% 8 Rounded, balanced and complex. Too expensive to pour on my porridge before an early morning walk on the Big Strand? I'll economise. I'll skip the porridge.

Bruichladdich Berrys' Own Selection 1991
Single Malt - Scotland - 46.00% 8 A summery whisky. Refreshing. Thirst-quenching.

Bruichladdich Celtic Nations
Blended Malt - Scotland - 46.00% 8 Seems to have stored all the ingredients for a healthy breakfast. A morning dram? Quite inviting.

Bruichladdich Infinity Second Edition
Single Malt - Scotland - 52.50% 8 Alcohol is perfectly tamed. No burn or tang. A cheery dram for a sunny afternoon.

Bruichladdich Islay Barley 2004
Single Malt - Scotland - 50.00% 8 Discreet, subtle and pure with great balance for one so young - and marked accordingly.

Bruichladdich Legacy 1966 Vintage
Single Malt - Scotland - 40.60% 8 An especially characterful 'laddie from its sunny hue and lean, firm body to its touch of tartness.

Bruichladdich Legacy Series II 1965
Single Malt - Scotland - 41.80% 8 Does Starbucks know about this?

Bruichladdich Octomore Comus 4.2 2007
Single Malt - Scotland - 61.00% 7 Though hot, go easy on the water.

Bruichladdich Port Charlotte 9 2001
Single Malt - Scotland - 59.20% 7 Another to have with minimal dilution. Peat freaks will lap it up.

Bruichladdich Second Edition 15 Years Old
Single Malt - Scotland - 46.00% 8 I seem to have fallen into a breakfast reverie. This would be best with a Japanese breakfast.

Bruichladdich The Organic
Single Malt - Scotland - 46.00% 7 Good to have samples from The Laddie again and showing it is clearly in fine form.

Bruichladdich Vintage 1973
Single Malt - Scotland - 40.20% 8 The whisky for a Baltimore crab feast. Why not a Bruichladdich crab feast, come to that?

Bruichladdich XVII, 17 Years Old
Single Malt - Scotland - 46.00% 8 I shall try this in a Caipirinha, with a CD of Annie Ross at her peak.

Celtique Connexion Bruichladdich 1992 Spirit Safe & Cask Selection
Single Malt - Scotland - 43.00% 7 It took me a while to get past the very pale colour (white wine) and the distinctive aroma but, in the end, I liked this manifestation of The Laddie.

Cooper's Choice Bruichladdich 1991, 12 Years Old, Portwood
Single Malt - Scotland - 46.00% 7 Very appetising. Long, lingering.

Dewar Rattray Bruichladdich 1991, 12 Years Old
Single Malt - Scotland - 60.00% 8 Savoury. Summery. A picnic malt. Or eating freshly shucked oysters with Jim McEwan.

Dewar Rattray Bruichladdich 1993 12 Years Old
Single Malt - Scotland - 55.10% 7 Complex, subtle and interesting, but not a dram to stay at home for. Go out, have fun!

Duncan Taylor Bruichladdich 1969, 33 Years Old
Single Malt - Scotland - 48.70% 8 Good balance – has stood up to its cask well, retaining a zest not overwhelmed by age.

Old Malt Cask Bruichladdich 1969
Single Malt - Scotland - 53.50% 8 Shows that this whisky can handle some age and sherry.

Old Masters Bruichladdich 1991 12 Years Old
Single Malt - Scotland - 58.70% 7 The Laddie in austere mood. Best before dinner.
