Bruichladdich The Classic Laddie 10 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml)

First offered as a Tenner back in 2011, but at a lower ABV, the distillery's signature bottling returns, now bottled at 50%. Its predecessor was a favourite ‘entry-level’ Islayer , dangerously drinkable and not particularly expensive. Expect the same here. Showcasing the classic, floral and elegant Bruichladdich house style, it's made from 100% Scottish barley, trickle distilled, non-chill filtered and colouring free. 

Other reviews... Nose: It’s fresh and bright with waxy orchard fruits of apples and pears in abundance along with peach, honey, floral meadows, dry grass and light oak. Palate: It’s those orchard fruits again, but more sweet juicy red apples this time and there’s lemon citrus bringing the sour too. There’s a peppery spice, but it’s never too assertive and is joined by honey, creamy vanilla and salt. The finish is creamy, with oak and green apple skins. The green apple note lingers for an age on the palate...This is undoubtedly good, spirit-forward whisky with plenty of flavour. There’s a really nice light and fruity profile and I love that we get 50% ABV here rather than the integrity base of 46%.  - dramface.com
