Discover this acclaimed Islay single malt that earned a Double Gold Medal at the 2022 San Francisco World Spirits Competition and ranked among Whisky Advocate's Top 20 Whiskies of 2018. Bruichladdich's Port Charlotte expression represents a decade of dedication, with every stepāfrom conception through bottlingācompleted on the island of Islay itself. The passionate team behind this whisky is committed to crafting an authentic Islay experience, delivering the bold, peated character that defines the region's most distinctive spirits.
After many limited releases, we finally have a permanent age-statement expression of Port Charlotte, with a satisfying number of years under its belt. Distilled from Scottish-grown barley, it is matured predominantly in first-fill American oak casks, along with second-fill American and second-fill French wine casks. It is peated to 40ppm, in line with other Islay heavy-hitters, but the peat is never a blunt instrument, retaining sufficient restraint to allow other characteristicsāmaritime notes, the sweetness of caramel, coconut, and orchard fruitsāto shine through.
