Bruichladdich Port Charlotte OLC: 01 2010 Heavily Peated Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky

Port Charlotte OLC: 01 is one of the most unusual expressions released. Its rarity is two-fold. Few single malts originally start their journey in such a complex combination of casks. Fewer still complete their journey in genuine Oloroso sherry hogsheads from a fine Spanish bodega like Fernando de Castilla. Distilled back in 2010, from the 2009 crop of Scottish Barley, this heavily peated single malt was first filled into an array of ex-bourbon, ex-Syrah and ex-VDN (vin doux naturel) casks. In 2018, this spirit was transferred into a parcel of Oloroso hoggies.
