Bruichladdich Port Charlotte PC12 Oileanach Furachail Heavily Peated Cask Strength Single Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml)

Now discontinued. 'Oileanach furachail' translates as something like 'attentive islander', a reference to Adam Hannett's apprenticeship under Jim McEwan since 2016. Described as a heavyweight malt, peated to 40ppm, and by several reports, one of the finest Port Charlottes to date.

Other reviews... Buy it… Maybe this whisky is 'As Good As It Gets'. If potent and fiery peaty malts are your thing, with a bit of sherry oak and a guaranteed 12 years of age on the clock, this is your whisky! - maltmileage.com

Distilled in 2002, here’s Port Charlotte with an assured maturity. Amber in color, with some smoke and a pleasing whiff of cowshed (sweet hay and cow’s breath), before rosehip syrup and ozonic freshness. Water brings out incense, cream, even a little nuttiness. The palate is gently complex; a drop of water is needed to calm the heat and reveal the smoke that interweaves between the layers. It retains its fresh acidic finish, with nutmeg, soft lemon, and pear. Excellent.
