Bruichladdich 9 Year Old Single Cask #0639 First Fill Bourbon 700ml
Product Notes
Bruichladdich Micro-Provenance is the single cask program from the Bruichladdich Distillery that we have been part of for over three years now.
For our third cask of that series we revisit our first release and focus on another bourbon cask. Cask number #0639, a first fill bourbon cask laid to rest for 9 years. Distilled from concerto barley on the 18th of February 2013 and bottled on the 14th of February 2023, yes that gives us only 4 more days for us to class it as 10 year old instead of a 9 year old…whisky is ready when whisky is ready.
This bourbon cask is so thick, so full of flavour. Everything with this third cask is just that little bit more than it’s earlier big brother.
Tasting Notes: Ray Daniel
"The experience begins with a light and crisp nose, offering hints of lemon custard, vanilla, citrus zest, and apple skin. The dark golden colour leads to a palate that opens with a honeyed mouthfeel, relatively thick and silky, featuring honey, caramel, and a sharp, bright oak character. As the palate evolves, notes of chocolate digestive biscuits emerge, complemented by zesty lime and apple puree. The creamy vanilla is met by soft stewed pear, cooked orchard fruits, and biscuity malt. White grapes bring a touch of sweetness, while the finish is round and mouth-coating, with lingering toasted oak, vanilla, toffee, a touch of custard, and a sprinkle of cacao. The finish remains complex and long, with a mineral-rich malt and more honey rounding off the experience."
