Port Charlotte Spotlight: 16 vs 18 Year Old

Here we are, here we are and here we go… Rockndaal all over the world!

We’ve loved so many of the Bruichladdich distillery releases this year, we thought we’d go back to last years limited edition Rock'ndaal 02.2 bottled for Fèis Ìle 2023.

This episode originally started out as a straight forward review of a whisky described as a ’rock party’ but evolved into a compare and contrast between two aged Port Charlottes (Port Charlotte 18, 2024 release), it’s fascinating how this one develops.

You’re gonna find out which is the headliner... which is the support act - is the surprise in store?
It's time to rock out with your Scotch out and let it be known - we make no apologies for the singing
