Bruichladdich - Duich Moss - Lochindaal Private Cask - 10 Year Old

Lochindaal is another of the Bruichladdich single malts, on this occasion peated to 50ppm+. It was created in 2007 by Jim McEwan, who was seeking to replicate the flavour profile of the historic Lochindaal distilley on Islay, closed since 1929 but in its time located just 2 miles from Bruichladdich.

In the end, the distilley decided against a permanent production schedule for Lochindaal, fearing a fourth single malt brand may lead to consumer confusion.

Lochindaal single malt was distilled twice, once in 2007 and again in 2009. On the second occasion however, some spirit was stored in a neutral vessel and casked the following year, meaning there are rare examples on the market which display a 2010 vintage in reference to the in-cask date.
