Badachro - Bad Na H-Achlaise Collection: Tuscan & Madeira Cask + Rum & Port Cask Finish - 70cl - 4 bottles

These four expressions belong to the Bad na h-Achlaise single malt range, independent releases curated and bottled by the artisan Badachro Distillery located in the remote North-West Scottish Highlands.
The defining DNA of Bad na h-Achlaise is its unique blending technique: it combines two distinct styles of single malt from an undisclosed Highland distillery—one peated and one unpeated—yielding a very gently peated, balanced Highland canvas that is then elevated through various boutique cask finishes


Tuscan Red Wine Cask Gently peated base. Finished in select Italian Tuscan Red Wine casks. 46% Deep oak, red berries, light vine fruits, a dry wine-tannin structure, and a faint blush color. Adds a robust, rich fruitiness and structural dryness to the soft smoky backdrop.

Port Cask Finish Gently peated base. Finished in rich Ruby Port wine casks. 46% Dark plums, blackberries, sweet jammy undertones, cocoa, and warming pepper. A winter-warmer style where dark, thick vineyard fruits intermingle with gentle campfire smoke.

Madeira Cask Finish Gently peated base. Finished in sweet, fortified Portuguese Madeira wine casks. 46% Stewed apples, orange oil, nuttiness (almonds), sweet honey, and warm ginger baking spice. Crisp yet sweet. The oxidized nature of Madeira wood brings forward a rich dessert-like spice profile.

Rum Cask Finish Unpeated base variant. Finished in first-fill Caribbean ex-rum casks. 46% Nose: Orange peel, vanilla, coconut, banana.
Palate: Pineapple and golden syrup.
Finish: Toasted brioche and orange marmalade. Remarkably tropical, sweet, and bright. The absence of peat allows the lush, sunny rum oils to take center stage.
