Bruichladdich 1990 - Black Art 4.1 (23 Year Old)

The 4th release of the highly sought after Black Arts series of Bruichladdich. This is matured for 23 years and is made using the distillery's unpeated malt. Much of the maturation has been in sherry cask but the mix of barrels used is kept a mystery. One of the richest and most complex releases from Bruichladdich. 

Bruichladdich Black Art is an enigmatic and mysterious series of whisky releases from the Bruichladdich distillery. It's known for its secrecy surrounding the cask types and aging process, with the distillery releasing very limited information about the whisky's production. Each release under the Black Art label is typically a heavily aged, non-age statement whisky known for its complexity and richness. Unlike some whisky releases, Bruichladdich's Black Art series does not adhere to a numerical or sequential chapter system. Instead, each batch is distinguished by a specific vintage or edition number, often named as "Edition" followed by a number or year. Every bottle carries a code, allowing customers to unveil its contents on the Bruichladdich website, aligning with the distillery's commitment to transparency. Since its inception in 2008, Black Art unveils a unique and unrepeatable edition annually. Only three details – vintage, age, and ABV – are disclosed. The exclusive knowledge of Black Art's processes and recipe rests solely with the Head Distiller, Adam Hannett.
