Bruichladdich 1984 / 23 Year Old / Golder Still
70cl / 51%
Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Distillery Bottling
The latest release in Bruichladdich's 'Still' series (after Blacker and Redder), Golder Still refers to the colour provided by the experimental 'dumpy' squat bourbon Hogsheads that the spirit was matured in. These casks gave a greater ratio of wood contact to spirit and have resulted in the eponomyous 'Golder Still' spirit, it says here. Cunningly, the bottle has been coated, so unfortunately this amazing golden colour can't be seen until you have it in the glass...
