Review #113: The Single Cask Bruichladdich 2009 11 Years Old (The Water of Life)

This review focuses on a special edition of Bruichladdich which was bottled in conjunction with The Water of Life film and it was distilled in 2009, matured in a first fill bourbon barrel for 11 years and bottled at a cask strength ABV of 61.3% by The Single Cask.


So, let's dive right into the review!


The Single Cask Bruichladdich 2009 11 Years Old (The Water of Life, 61.3% ABV)


Nose: Macadamia, sea salt, malt, honey, cacao, light hay


Palate: An immediate rush of liquorice, lemon, key lime and fennel which took the tongue a few minutes to process before it leads on to green apple, pineapple, cinnamon and mint on second taste before it exits and leaves behind you salivating with malt powder and sencha rice tea. Full-bodied and decadent.


Finish: Dries off into malt, white pepper, coriander seeds


This expression is available by the dram at The Single Cask but bottles are sold out worldwide!
