The Port Charlotte 10 Years Old Heavily Peated is an authentic Islay single malt whisky that reflects the characteristic DNA of the famous whisky island in every facet. Sourced 100% from Islay, it combines traditional craftsmanship with a deep, multi-layered flavour. The Scottish barley used comes from the Inverness region and is intensively peated, giving the whisky its distinctive smoky character with 40 ppm (phenol content).

It is matured for ten years in a sophisticated combination of different types of cask. 65% is aged in first-fill American whisky casks, which lend it sweet vanilla and caramel flavours. 10% is matured in second-fill American whiskey barrels, which adds gentle wood accents and a subtle spiciness. 25% is finished in second-fill wine casks from France, which gives the whisky additional fruity and spicy nuances. This cask composition gives Port Charlotte 10 a unique balance between strong smoke, sweet vanilla and fruity notes and a fine oak spiciness.

Its alcohol content of 50% vol. provides an impressive intensity, while its smooth texture and complex flavour profile create a perfect harmony between strength and elegance. The character of this whisky is characterised by its peaty strength, combined with a light sea breeze and subtle fruit accents from the wine casks.

This exceptional Islay single malt is not only a delight for fans of peaty whiskies, but also a prime example of the craftsmanship of the Bruichladdich Distillery. Its multi-layered flavour, combined with its intense smokiness and careful cask maturation, makes it a must-have for discerning connoisseurs and collectors of high-quality whiskies.
