Port Charlotte An Turas Mor Tasting note

By Miguel in Tasting , Bruichladdich

“Quite good peat monster. This peat of Bruichladdich is something awesome. Don't miss the chance of tasting the cask strength version.”

91
Port Charlotte An Turas Mor
2010's release of Port Charlotte is a departure from previous years in two significant ways: as a multi-vintage vatting and being bottled at 46% rather than the humungous cask strength of the earlier PC's. An Turas Mor ("The Great Journey", it says here) is intended as a coming-of-age PC, and, it is claimed, fulfils Jim McEwan's original vision for the brand.

This dram has a gold-like color.

Nose (91): more than average. sweet, peat, honey, floral, vanilla, pepper.

Palate (92): powerful, oily. peat, honey, citrus, floral, salt, vanilla, wood.

Finish (90): longer than average. peat, earth, floral, citrus, honey.

So based on other whiskies I have already tasted I rate this Port Charlotte An Turas Mor with 91 points over 100.
