Bruichladdich Cuvée 640 Eroica 21 Year Old

Bruichladdich Cuvée 640 Eroica 21 Year Old is an unpeated Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky from Bruichladdich’s distinctive Cuvée series.

The extended Cognac-cask finish adds layers of rich fruit, chocolate, vanilla, toffee and spice to Bruichladdich’s elegant malt character.
