Bruichladdich Port Charlotte 18 Year Old Islay Single Malt Scotch 700mL

Bruichladdich Port Charlotte 18 Year Old is a heavily peated Islay single malt Scotch whisky, aged 18 years and distilled at Bruichladdich on the Rhinns of Islay.

Port Charlotte is Bruichladdich's heavily peated expression, made in the tradition of the classic smoky Islay malts while retaining the distillery's focus on provenance, terroir, and unhurried maturation. This 18-year-old release carries the deep peat-smoke character of the Port Charlotte range balanced by the softening, layering influence of long oak maturation — a benchmark age statement for peated Islay single malt.

Tasting Notes

Nose: Deep peat smoke, sea spray and brine, dried citrus, and toasted oak.
Palate: Rich and layered, with maritime smoke, barley sweetness, dark fruit, and warm spice over well-integrated oak.
Finish: Long and smoky, with lingering peat, salt, and gentle oak warmth.
