Bruichladdich is famed for it’s continual experimentation and varied releases. While solidly in the Islay region, most Bruichladdich expressions are not peated, leaving their peat work to the famed Port Charlotte and Octo more bottlings from the same distillery. Treating grain the way the French treat Burgundy grapes, there is a lot of interest here in interesting grains and treatments. As an example, the Laddie Rye is said to be a mixed grain product, adding a significant amount of rye (45%) to the common barley (55%).
