| TASTING NOTE: 'Peat' has been created to showcase the unique, heavily peated Bruichladdich style, where the heavier sea iodine flavours that can dominate other Islay peated whiskies is subdued and made more elegant by the distillery's Victorian long-necked stills. The lively, zesty, lemony 'core' characteristics of Bruichladdich interact nicely with powerful, sweet peat notes on the nose. The palate yields a lovely balance of sweet, spicy pears and vanilla with peat which lacks the medicinal notes usually associated with Islay ... Score - *** 1/2 (out of 5). (Gavin D.
