Port Charlotte is the name for heavily peated spirit from Bruichladdich distillery and was first produced in 2001. Peated to around 40 ppm, the whisky is an homage to the long closed Islay distillery Lochindaal, which shut its doors in the late 1920s.\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\nA bold and vibrant Port Charlotte at cask strength, where smoky intensity meets notes of ripe tropical fruit. The nose offers grilled pineapple and honeyed vanilla, wrapped in warm, earthy peat smoke with a hint of maritime salinity and a subtle funky edge. The palate is rich and oily, balancing smouldering peat with caramelised banana, coconut cream, and bright citrus, all layered over deep bourbon cask sweetness. The finish lingers long, fading from ashy smoke to salted caramel and toasted spice, leaving a final whisper of sweet orchard fruit and coastal minerality.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\nOriginally a run of around 160 bottles, Hedonism Wines are delighted to offer 98 bottles from the cask, presented with a re-designed retro label - a nod to the Islay indie bottlings released to the Italian market in the 1960s and 70s.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bruichladdich","offers":[{"title":"Duty Paid","offer_id":62413443236170,"sku":"HED01891","price":175.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0998\/7696\/2634\/files\/HED01891.png?v=1784650349","url":"https:\/\/hedonism.co.uk\/products\/port-charlotte-14-year-old-auld-islay-single-barrel-exclusive-to-hedonism-wines-2003","provider":"Hedonism Wines","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
