Two Bruichladdich expressions, one great opportunity. The headline act is Yellow Submarine III, a 14 year old single malt from 100% Scottish barley, matured on Islay across first-fill bourbon and French red wine casks and bottled at cask strength 54.2% ABV. Honeyed oats, crème brûlée richness and a linger of sea salt make it one of the more compelling releases in the WMD lineage. Alongside it, a 20cl of the unpeated Classic Laddie 10 Year Old offers an accessible companion from the same distillery and a neat contrast in style.
PRE-ORDER: Stock due towards the end of W/C - 8th June 2026
Tasting Notes
Awards
Nose
Beautifully balanced and rounded, honeyed oats and buttery shortbread open on the nose, with pink peppercorns and a hint of ginger punctuating this sweet character.
Palate
Creamy crème Brulé adds to the spirit’s luxuriously smooth texture, complemented with crisp apple and pear on the palate.
Finish
Gentle spice and toasted hazelnut settle on the finish while a hint of sea salt linger.
