Bruichladdich 1992 29 Year Old Black Art Series 9.1
Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Distillery Bottling 70cl / 44.1%
Bottled in 2021, this 29-year-old Bruichladdich 1992 Black Art comes from the 1% of remaining stock made before the Murray McDavid revival in 2001, and is the oldest of the Black Art series so far.
Bottled at 44.1%, although we know that Black Art 9.1 is unpeated Bruichladdich, the cask recipe for this edition has remained undisclosed, although it's a certainty that various different wine casks will be involved along the way. A fruity Bruichladdich with prominent notes of brown sugar, tobacco and vanilla.

Tasting Notes
Official Tasting Notes
Colour: Russet.
Nose: Simply stunning. Tropical fruit, coconut, tobacco, oak spices and toasted pine needles weave an intricate web of aromas. With a bit of time, this beautiful whisky opens up to waves of mango, honey-drizzled melon, warm orange zest, grilled pineapple and ripe summer strawberries. It’s mouth-wateringly succulent and fruity – the gentle oak offering coconut, ginger, buttery shortbread, vanilla custard and hints of tobacco.
Palate: The viscosity and depth to this dram are out of this world; the oak notes of tobacco and brown sugar, chocolate and coconut provide the base for all those wonderful fruit combinations to shine. A drop of water and a second sip further explore the woven layers of this remarkable whisky.
Finish: The succulent fruit sweetness lasts for an age on the palate, apricot, mango and baked banana, toasted sweet oak, honey and vanilla – you just don’t want it to end.
Character: With this edition of Black Art, inspiration was taken from the groundwork done in creating the first editions of this series, where there was a relentless pursuit to layer flavour. This whisky would rest in some of the finest casks, adding a delicate layer of fruit before it was moved on again. Carefully waiting, watching and tasting, looking to chart new directions with each new cask used until finally arriving at a point of perfection.
