The Bruichladdich 1990 GM Refill Sherry Hogshead #3000 is a 30-year-old Islay single malt whisky, distilled in 1990 and bottled by Gordon & MacPhail as part of their limited-release Connoisseurs Choice range. This exquisite whisky was crafted during a period of minimal distillation at the Bruichladdich distillery, making it a rare and unique offering. Matured in a single refill sherry hogshead for three decades, this whisky yielded only 228 bottles, underscoring its exclusivity.
On the nose, it offers a rich and decadent aroma of stewed dates, brown sugar toffee, and hints of orange zest and ginger, complemented by dried fruit, spicy oak, tropical fruit, and vanilla. The palate is an opulent journey through flavors of baked apple, marzipan, cherries, and fruitcake, enriched by notes of rich fruitcake, apple, marzipan, toffee, and spicy oak. The finish is medium, evolving into a long and fruity crescendo with hints of ginger, cherry, and dates, alongside toasted oak and nutty undertones.
Bottled at a cask strength of 51.9% ABV, this whisky is free from chill filtration and retains its natural color. It is presented in an elegant oak case, making it a distinguished addition to any whisky collection.
