Port Charlotte Islay Barley 2013 Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky, 50%

5 items left

This 8-Year-Old heavily peated whisky from the Bruichladdich Distillery is a direct embodiment of everything an Islay whisky can and should be. Conceived, distilled, matured and bottled on the island, with barley grown by seven of farms on the island itself.

For this expression, Islay Barley harvested in 2013 has been peated to 40PPM, distilled into beautiful Port Charlotte whisky and then matured in ex-American and ex-wine casks hailing from the Pessac-Leognan region of France. 

With redberry fruits, toasted oak notes and hints of coffee and chocolate, it offers a dramatic, smoky finish. A true homage to Islay.

About the distillery

The Bruichladdich distillery on Islay is at the forefront of environmental action in Scotland's whisky industry. A recent project launched in 2021 aims to use sustainable energy to heat the distillery, creating only water as a waste product, eliminating all CO2 emissions.

Alongside their environmental credentials, Bruichladdich also proudly practices a very traditional approach to distilling that is fairly radical today. All their Single Malt Whiskies are based on Scottish Barley, with around half of that coming from Islay itself, and 5% organically grown.

Three whiskies in different styles are produced at Bruichladdich: The unpeated Bruichladdich bottles, the heavily peated Port Charlotte, and the ultra-heavily peated Octomore.

All Bruichladdich's whisky focus on terroir, quality, and careful cask maturation, with a degree of detail seen in few distilleries anywhere else in the world.
