Bruichladdich 18 years 1984 Of. Enlightenment Cask n°14,15 - One of 500 - bottled 2002 Limited Edition

The wine

A Bruichladdich 18 year old distilled in 1984 and bottled in 2002 to celebrate the reprinting of the classic whisky book Practical Distiller: A Brief Treatise of Practical Distillation. It is a blend of two bourbon casks. A limited edition of 500 bottles.

Scotland, Isle of Islay. Distillery operational. Owner: Remy Cointreau

Owned by Invergordon Distillers from 1968 until 1993, when it joined the Whyte & Mackay portfolio, Bruichladdich closed in 1995. At the time it produced an unpeated malt primarily used for blends. Whilst well-known for its bourbon casks released in 10, 15 and 21 year old versions, it was above all the sherry-cask versions selected and bottled for the Italian market that made a lasting impression. It was for Moon Import that Penny Black 1968 and Bruichladdich 1965 (52%) - celebrating the marriage of Prince Charles and Lady Diana Spencer - were bottled in ceramic jugs.Bought in December 2000 by Mark Reynier and reopened in May 2001, the distillery has since released endless limited editions and exclusive bottlings, including a superb 40 year old, several 1970 and 1972 vintages, and the Legacy range, primarily featuring bottlings from the late 1960s.
