Islay’s bold character meets bourbon’s smooth embrace.
Step into the heart of Islay with the Glaschu Islay Single Malt 15: Bourbon Barrel, a whisky that embodies the island’s untamed spirit while showcasing the refined influence of bourbon barrel maturation. This limited-edition release is an exploration of balance, where rugged coastal charm meets creamy sweetness in a dram that’s as captivating as the landscape it hails from.
Distilled on Islay and matured for 15 glorious years in ex-bourbon barrels, this single malt is a testament to the craftsmanship of its makers. The barrels impart layers of vanilla, caramel, and oak, while allowing Islay’s signature maritime character and gentle smokiness to shine through.
On the nose, expect a tantalizing mix of salted caramel, fresh citrus, and a waft of sea breeze, underscored by delicate hints of vanilla pods and toasted oak. The aroma invites you to delve deeper into the complexities of this refined Islay malt.
The first sip reveals a rich, velvety texture, with notes of buttery toffee, zesty lemon peel, and golden honey balanced against a subtle peaty warmth. Hints of coconut, cracked black pepper, and charred oak bring depth and complexity, while maintaining a harmony that’s both bold and elegant.
The finish is long and satisfying, with a lingering interplay of sweet vanilla, gentle smoke, and a touch of briny minerality that leaves a lasting impression of Islay’s coastal heritage.
