Starting with this, quite mellow and earthy drop, limited release of 15000 bottles.



Big surprise packet this one, huge heat in the mouth but absolutely no burn. (and 63.5% alc content)



Then only the Sherry aged which i was most looking forward to, fragrant with a hint of 'peat'



Finally a bit of a hard hitter, quite peaty and huge depth of flavour.




On a foot note the Bruichladdich distillery has a fascinating history, check out some of the you tube vids kicking around.
just explained to my son , who walked past seeing the X4 bottle photo, no son that is not after shave
