Bruichladdich The Classic Laddie Unpeated Single Malt Scotch Whiskey
Bruichladdich The Classic Laddie is the NAS unpeated core expression from the innovative Islay distillery — representing the ‘Laddie’ house style of unpeated single malt from an island distillery that also produces Port Charlotte (heavily peated) and Octomore (world’s most heavily peated), bottled at 50% ABV without chill filtration or added colour.
The Classic Laddie is built around Scottish barley from various mainland farms (the specific farms change each year) and matured in a combination of ex-bourbon and wine casks. At 50% ABV without chill filtration the full fruit, floral, and vanilla character of the distillery’s clean spirit is preserved without compromise. Browse all Scotch whisky at Wooden Cork.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is The Classic Laddie peated?
No — The Classic Laddie is completely unpeated, representing Bruichladdich’s clean, floral, and fruit-forward house style. The distillery produces three distinct product lines at different peat levels: Classic Laddie (unpeated), Port Charlotte (approximately 40 PPM), and Octomore (80–300+ PPM).
Why is The Classic Laddie bottled at 50% ABV?
50% ABV sits at the boundary between standard strength and cask strength — Bruichladdich bottles The Classic Laddie at this higher strength without chill filtration to preserve the full natural flavour and texture of the spirit, giving more character than typical 40% expressions while remaining accessible without needing water.
