BRUICHLADDICH 12 YEAR OLD RIVESALTES PRIVATE CASK #3640Single malt.Given Islay’s peaty reputation, the assumption might be that the islanders themselves favour big smoky whiskies. However, it’s actually Bruichladdich with its traditionally unpeated style that has earned the reputation as the local favourite. It’s only relatively recently that the distillery has dabbled in peated whisky with their Port Charlotte range, as well as the ultra-heavily peated Octomore releases.Information supplied by the cask's owner tells us that Hogshead #3640, which previously contained Rivesaltes wine, was filled on the 10th of December 2009 with spirit produced exclusively from Scottish barley.60.5% ABV / 70cl
