Product description
The Italian Collection by Bruichladdich consists of six whiskies distilled in 1993, which after spending fourteen years in bourbon barrels underwent additional aging for several months in barrels of the finest Italian wines. The "Italian Collection" hit the market in 2007 and each of the whiskies included in it was a limited edition of 3,000 bottles. The Nebbiolo grape variety is used to produce Barbaresco wine, and the Italian link of the distillery was the Gaja vineyard from Piedmont.
