16 Year Old

About

This Bruichladdich 16 Year Old from Claxton's represents the pinnacle of patient maturation and craftsmanship. After sixteen years in oak, this Islay single malt achieves a remarkable balance between the power of aged spirit and the complexity that only time can deliver. At a robust 58.6% ABV, it offers a full, oily mouthfeel without harshness. The nose reveals layered notes of dried fruits, plums, and dark chocolate, complemented by hazelnut, cedar, and old leather. The palate follows with a full, buttery experience of toffee, sultanas, and hints of orange blossom. The finish is long and complex, with sweet tannins and notes of tobacco, pepper, and warming spices that linger beautifully.
