<p>Our signature bottling and the definitive Bruichladdich.&nbsp;</p><p>Showcasing the classic, floral and elegant Bruichladdich house style, The Classic Laddie is made from 100% Scottish barley, trickle distilled, non-chill filtered and colouring free.</p><p><strong>IT'S CALLED SCOTCH FOR A REASON</strong></p><p>The suite of casks selected for each batch of The Classic Laddie has been filled with the spirit we distil from 100% Scottish-grown barley. We could never deny that there is a romantic element in our determination to source our core ingredient from Scotland; after all, there is no requirement to make it so. But this is not simply sentiment; the unique combination of an ideal climate, high latitude and the soil types found in Scotland makes the Scottish barley crop perfect for creating the optimum flavour profile during distillation.</p><h4>TASTING NOTES</h4><p><strong>CHARACTER</strong></p><p>Clean, fresh and lively. The oak and the grain work in perfect harmony.</p><p><strong>COLOUR</strong></p><p>Summer barley</p><p><strong>NOSE</strong></p><p>Barley sugar and a hint of mint open before moving into freshly cut wild flowers; buttercup, daisy, meadowsweet, myrtle, primrose and cherry blossom. Delicate zephyrs of spindrift and sea pinks are a reminder that this spirit is matured exclusively beside the sea. Over time, and with the addition of a little water, caramelised fruit notes come to the fore, with hints of lemon drops, honey, tangerine and tablet.</p><p><strong>PALATE</strong></p><p>Refined and refreshing, sweet oak and barley notes come together in perfect harmony. Ripe green fruits, brown sugar and sweet malt follow, showcasing the remarkable flavour of the Scottish barley used in this single malt.</p><p><strong>FINISH</strong></p><p>Smooth and well rounded, the finish showcases the elegant balance between the sprightly, vibrant fruit and the subtle sea-spray notes.</p><p><strong>SPECIFICATIONS</strong></p><p>BARLEY PROVENANCE: 100% Scottish barley; mainland, Islay and organically grown</p><p>MALTING: Unpeated</p><p>DISTILLATION: Recipe specific</p><p>AGE: Minimum age dependent on individual recipe</p><p>MATURATION PROFILE: The recipe varies from batch to batch and has no set maturation profile.&nbsp;</p><p>STRENGTH: 50% ABV</p>
