Thanks to /u/cake_my_day for this sample

Seems a little silly having Bruichladdich 18 (2nd edition) prior to having the 1st edition, however my love of completing things in video games is a lot harder in real life when Bruichladdich is concerned.

I mean, I gave up with the damn feathers in Assassin’s Creed 2, and they are a cake walk compared to finding more and more of the Bruichladdich releases.

So we have Bruichladdich 18 (2nd edition). The idea behind this sub-category among the legion of releases is it was aged in ex-Bourbon casks, and then finished in French oak. But not just any French oak. French oak that was previously used for Jurancon sweet wine from the south-west of France. The wine itself is what’s on parade here.

The wine is made from Petit Manseng grape and have Noble Rot in them. Don’t get that too often.

So…
