A valinch, possibly from a Spanish term, is the name applied to a large, copper pipette used to take cask samples from whisky barrels. The view is if you have made the effort to get to Islay then you deserve something just a little extra special. Valinchs are by definition only ever at cask strength, from a single barrel, and selected by Jim McEwan for individuality. Each Valinch released has it s own label and title, usually to commemorate a specific event or person.
A rare bottling of a Bruichladdich Islay single malt, which impressively shows in its taste the special maturation in calvados cask with a complex aroma and the influence of the noble apple brandy from the Normandy.
A special Bruichladdich Islay single malt, which shows Jim McEwan s barrel art in a particularly expressive way and is a highlight for connoisseurs and whisky-collectors of fine old scotch whiskies.
