Tasting Notes
This Bruichladdich Laddie Five-O is a delightful whisky that pays homage to Jim McEwan's remarkable 50 years in the industry. The nose tantalizingly greets you with sweet barley, reminiscent of Wine Gums in shades of yellow and green, alongside subtle hints of corn and raspberry. As it breathes, notes of grist emerge, mingling with the alluring scents of butterscotch and Kettle chips. On the palate, a burst of white pepper tingles the senses, complemented by the crisp taste of pear skin. The finish is a delicate balance of slight saltiness and a lingering fruitiness, leaving a pleasant tang on the tongue. With only 700 bottles released, this vatting of carefully selected vintages is a true tribute to McEwan's illustrious career and a must-have for whisky connoisseurs.
