Port Charlotte's long-awaited 10 year old, rich and smoky whisky made by the independently minded folks at Bruichladdich distillery on Islay. PC, as it's known to its friends, is heavily peated to 40ppm, putting it up with Islay's other heavy hitters. The resulting whisky is big and peaty with a maritime tang – the Bruichladdich team would claim that it's because their warehouses are so close to the sea, we're still undecided. In the end, the most important thing is the taste: it's rather good.

The 50% ABV hits hard at first, but the smoothness reveals itself almost immediately afterwards. The smoke is there, but hints of fruit helps to even out the flavour. A great whisky for those who love Islay drams, but definitely not for novices and/or those who prefer a whisky from other regions of Scotland.

Another Bruichladdich of rare balance and elegance. The richness of the peat makes the aftertaste magnificent
-
A great peated malt, I would go as far to say it's a cut above other Islay whiskys I've tried.
-
A great dram. Smokey, toffee, and a tast of port on the pallet. Definitely an after dinner dram .

It's a taste of the sea. Crashing waves, seaweed and smoke. The closest you'll get to sitting outside Bruichladdich while they distil peaty whisky.
