Port Charlotte 2005 Valinch / Feis Ile 2018
This Port Charlotte Heavily Peated was made with 100% Scottish barley and matured in the village of Port Charlotte by master distiller Jim McEwan. Specially chosen casks were used in the creation of the Port Charlotte Scottish Barley, which highlight the elegance of this expression.
The Valinch bottlings from Bruichladdich are only available at the distillery’s visitor centre. This Port Charlotte is one of two launched for the annual Feis Ile festival in 2018, to coincide with their rebrand of the Port Charlotte range. Port Charlotte is a heavily peated expression, produced at Bruichladdich as a recreation of a style of whisky created at an old ‘lost’ distillery in the nearby town of the same name.
Distilled in 2005, this distillery exclusive was launched at their Feis Ile open day on 27th May 2018. It is 12 years old and was matured fully in 2nd fill Oloroso sherry cask #2087.
Bottle no. 834 of 956.
Port Charlotte 2007 CC: 01
This Port Charlottes original release was for the Travel Retail Market in the first half of 2016. The Port Charlotte 2007 CC:01 is a peated expression from the Bruichladdich distillery which has been entirely matured in French oak casks. This particular product was distilled in Islay in for eight years in casks that previously held some of the finest Eau de Vie. The result is a complex dram tasting of sea salt, peat smoke, vie, toasted oak and lemon barley sugar flavours of the wood.
