Smagsnoter:
Bruichladdich 2001/2008 ‘Resurrection' (46%, OB, bourbon, 24,000 bottles) From the first runs of Bruichladdich by the new owners, using malt that was peated to 10ppm before they went back to very little peat after that. It seems that there were also batches at other peat levels (we've also seen 5 or <!-- s8) --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_cool.gif" alt="" title="Cool" /><!-- s8) -->. The bottle itself is very, say ‘noticeable' and the name of 'Resurrection' rings a bell (Renaissance, anyone? Who will launch a Rebirth? <!-- s;-) --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_wink.gif" alt="" title="Wink" /><!-- s;-) -->) Colour: pale gold. Nose: what strikes first is the peat, quite unexpectedly. It's as if Bruichladdich's trademark freshness and cleanliness worked as an amplifier for the tiniest ‘ppms'. The peat calms down after a while, that is, leaving room for quite some iodine and even medicinal hints (unexpected again), as well as notes of fresh mint and aniseed. It's also quite farmy in the background (farmyard, hay, wet wool). Very little sweetness and fruitiness here and in that sense it's extremely different from older ‘natural' versions that always had a little apple/pear/peach/melon/you name it. After ten minutes: a lot of smoke and elements from the sea (make that sea air). Mouth: once again, this is very surprising, much peatier than expected. Very ‘maritime' again (oysters!) and rather herbal and spicy (mint, green tea, ginger, white pepper.) Quite ashy/smoky as well. Hints of bitter fruits developing (cider apples) as well as chlorophyll but the peatiness is still unexpectedly huge. Finish: long, smoky and vegetal (Japanese green tea). Comments: a huge surprise. This has strictly nothing to do with the older 10 or 15yo, whether recent or formerly bottled by Invergordon or earlier owners. It has to be ranked among the peated Islayers "“ not the monsters of course -, even if it does also have something of Scotland's northeastern coast. By the way, we like it a lot. SGP:255 - 87 points.

Hej
ved du også hvad den kommer til at koste.

chk

Uden at du må hænge mig 100% op på det - kunne jeg forestille mig, at prisen bliver mellem 550 til 599 kr.

Det er godt nok en høj pris for en (6?) 7 år gammel whisky. Også taget i betragtning, at man kan købe hjem til Pund kurs på ca 850. Prisen kan ikke modsvare de faktiske produktionsomkostninger - ellers er der godt nok noget i den organisation, der skal strammes op.
Der må være tale om, at man profilerer på den opmærksomhed, som Bruichladdich pt lever under.
Det er bare min mening!

Får for GBP 35.00 i udsalg i Storbritannien.... se www.parkerswhisky.co.uk/oscommer ... -1240.html

Jeg kan se at du ikke har kigget på Port Charlotte priserne

Jo - men at PC sælges til så voldsomme priser, må sige mere om destilleriets/importørernes marketingsevner end forbrugernes sunde fornuft.....

Det er vel individuel hvad folk synes er rimeligt. Men så længe de kan sælge produkterne, så er der vel ikke nogen grund til at sætte priserne ned.

I mine øjne mener / skriver vi det samme. Hvis de kan sælge til en "høj" pris, så har de gode marketingsevner indenfor mærkevarehandel.
