About This Whiskey
Port Charlotte 10 Year Old is a heavily peated single malt Scotch whisky from the Islay region, produced by the Bruichladdich Distillery. Known for its bold smoky character, this expression is part of the Port Charlotte range, which focuses on delivering rich, peaty flavors with complexity and depth. It’s a younger version of the distillery’s peated whiskies, but still offers a mature profile that showcases the distinct characteristics of Islay-produced Scotch. The Port Charlotte 10 Year Old is crafted using locally sourced Islay peat, which imparts a signature earthy, smoky flavor to the whisky. It's distilled in traditional copper pot stills and matured in a combination of American oak casks and French wine casks, contributing to its balanced yet robust flavor profile. The whisky is bottled at 50% ABV, a higher strength that allows the full intensity of the peat and smoke to shine through, while maintaining a smoothness that makes it approachable even for those new to peated whiskies.
