Bruichladdich 21 Year Old Re/Define

Bruichladdich

Bruichladdich is a boundary-pushing Islay distillery known for challenging conventions. Founded in 1881, it experienced several closures and revivals, finally being reborn in 2001 by a group of independent whisky entrepreneurs and later acquired by Rémy Cointreau in 2012. Unlike most Islay distilleries focused on peat, Bruichladdich is renowned for its unpeated expressions and its emphasis on terroir—the influence of local ingredients and environment—using Scottish-grown barley and local water sources, and bottling at cask strength with full transparency.

In addition to its core Bruichladdich range, the distillery produces heavily peated Port Charlotte and the ultra-peated Octomore, showcasing its versatility and innovation. Bruichladdich promotes handcrafted methods, traceable sourcing, and strong support for local agriculture, earning it a distinctive place among modern whisky lovers who value both flavor and social responsibility.
