Bruichladdich Black Art 11 Whisky

Bruichladdich Black Art 11.1 is the eleventh edition of the distillery's most enigmatic series, an unpeated Islay single malt aged for 24 years. As with every Black Art release, the cask recipe remains a secret known only to Head Distiller Adam Hannett, who drew on pre-2001 casks laid down before the distillery's renaissance, resulting in profound depth and complexity.

It is bottled at 44.2% ABV, non-chill filtered and at its natural colour. The nose offers dried fruit, leather and citrus with poached pear and mango, while the palate brings dates, raisins, butterscotch, praline and a touch of coconut over toasted oak. The finish is smooth and rounded, recalling rich fruitcake with sultanas, marzipan and lingering honey. It is a contemplative whisky for the dedicated enthusiast.
