Whisky Review: Edinburgh’s First Single Malt, Cardrona, Octomore And More

Some new entries from England and Edinburgh are joined by Scotch stalwarts and New Zealand malts.

: Bruichladdich distillery’s super-peated 10 year old sees its latest edition matured the first half of its life in first fill ex-American oak casks, and then re-casked into wine barriques from northern Spain for the final five years. Limited to 3,500 bottles, this is available exclusively through Bruichladdich’s online shop.: Malt and lemon shines through in equal measure; it’s a lovely combination. The oak envelops it in a warm hug, while Octomore’s fierce smoke rumbles dangerously beneath.

: Northern Ireland’s Gelston brand brings malted barley and grain together in bourbon casks for a bottling that offers good value for money for those looking for a smooth ride.: Almost no alcohol sting, allowing a particularly intense creamy vanilla to dominate. Think butter mixed with sugar at the start of a baking recipe.: As expected with an Irish blend, this is soft and easygoing from beginning to end.
