Single Malt Whisky, Scotland/Islay

This 8th edition of the Black Art series by Bruichladdich comes from the 1994 vintage, which makes it a 26 year old whiskey. Distilled and aged on Islay, the mystery remains around this bottling because only Adam Hannett knows the type of barrels used in the aging of this whisky. It presents an aromatic profile centered on citrus fruits, wood spices and the sweetness of vanilla.
