Crafted from 100% fully traceable Scottish-grown barley, the grain is malted to 40 parts per million (PPM) phenol content, giving the whisky its distinctive peaty character. mThe spirit was first filled into a combination of first-fill (75%) and second-fill (25%) bourbon barrels. This initial maturation in American oak casks imparted notes of vanilla, honey, and soft oak. After five years, the whisky was recasked into first-fill Syrah wine casks. This additional maturation period introduced layers of red fruit flavors and spice, enhancing the complexity of the whisky.\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Bruichladdich","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49069704085769,"sku":"18110-18110","price":99.56,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0853\/3272\/1929\/files\/bruichladdich_port_charlotte_10_year_old_2013_syc-01.jpg?v=1737795301"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.thewhiskybarrel.com\/fr\/collections\/port-charlotte.oembed","provider":"The Whisky Barrel","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
