Bruichladdich 1991 24 Years Bourbon / Fine French Oak Cask No. 034 The Laddie Crew Valinch No. 18 Retail Shop Administrator David Hope JNR Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky Cask Strength 46.9% Vol. - one of 400 Bottles of a great Bruichladdich Islay Single Malt!
This rare vintage 1991 24 years-old Bruichladdich Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky was distilled on 20th November 1991, matured for 16 years in Bourbon casks and then for 8 years in a Château Latour French Oak wine cask with cask no. 034, before being bottled in 2016 in the Laddie Crew Valinch series, available only at the Distillery Visitor Centre, as no. 18 for Retail Shop Administrator David Hope Junior without added dyes and chill filtration at cask strength 49.8% vol. in a limited edition of only 400 individually hand numbered bottles.
A valinch, possibly from a Spanish term, is the name applied to a large, copper pipette used to take cask samples from whisky casks. 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 cask 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 and unique bottling of a great Bruichladdich Islay Single Malt, which shows in an impressive way in taste the maturation in the Bourbon Cask and the double-maturation in the Châteu Latour wine cask with a complex aroma and the extremely successful combination and influence of the noble French wine.
A special Bruichladdich Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky, which shows Jim McEwan s cask art in a particularly expressive way and is a highlight for connoisseurs and whisky-collectors of outstanding and fine old Scotch whiskies.
