Whiskey: Bruichladdich Black Art 7th Edition 25 Year Old Unpeated Single Malt Scotch

Bruichladdich introduces the new Black Art 7.1: the casks that were selected for this vintage single malt whisky from 1994 were matured for 25 years. It was the year when Bruichladdich was closed, so this whisky is a witness of the last months the distillery’s production before it was mothballed and waited for its revival in 2001.

Detailed Description

A marriage of casks that are a complete mystery to all but Head Distiller Adam Hannett, Black Art is an experiment to explore the deep connection between spirit and wood.

Bruichladdich Black Art 7th Edition 25 Year Old Unpeated Single Malt Scotch Whisky Tasting Notes

Nose: Incredibly complex. The mysterious result of special barrel maturation, craftsmanship and the magical influence of the Isle of Islay. Lined up at the beginning are concentrated notes of marzipan, then walnut and crème caramel, followed by Turkish honey, passing on to the scents of strawberries, violets and coconuts. After a few minutes, intense fruity notes of ripe plum, poached pear, raisins and grapefruit follow, slowly turning into spicy-woody nuances and the scent of nutmeg, toasted oak, roasted coffee beans and brown muscovado sugar.

Palate: On the palate, the Black Art 07.1 appears a little less complex than in the nose. You can see a slight sharpness, which quickly turns into a velvety texture and a soft, round mouthfeel. The first, rather dry, woody aromas give way to the fruity-sweet combination of coconut, Turkish honey, caramel and orange peel and end in a perfect balance of texture, power and mysterious elegance.

Finish: As if there were no end and a pleasure that never stops. With its incredibly gentle texture, the Black Art 07.1 ends in a grand and unforgettable finale of roasted nuts, tropical fruits, baked pineapple and butterscotch.
