Doing things for fun
This is brilliant: Bruichladdich are going to make a whisky with 92% alcohol content.
For fun! (apparently the MD, Mark Reynier said they are ‘doing it as a bit of fun’).
The world needs more of this kind of fun. It’s the same adventurous spirit (no pun intended) that brought us Ardbeg Very Young. This is a cracking whisky that we were introduced to by Loch Fyne Whiskies on a trip up north. Apparently released after the Ardbeg committee realised that they had something special on their hands when tasting an early sample, it’s the peatiest thing I’ve ever tasted and is absolutely guaranteed to knock your socks off.
There’s a lot of this spirit of fun here at whiskyTAG and we’re looking forward to the ride. Remember to email us if you want to be involved in early testing.
