Хересно-фруктовый Bruichladdich с медово-ягодной сладостью, кремом-брюле и шоколадом; большинство ставит 89–90 как мягкий и приятный, но опытные сдержаннее — упрекают в короткой, суховато-горчащей концовке и «магазинной для дьюти-фри» простоте.
развернуть подробно
В аромате преобладают спелые ягоды (клубника, красная смородина, вишня) и цитрусовая цедра вместе с косточковыми фруктами — персик, абрикос, слива, — поверх обильного мёда, ванили, крема-брюле, бисквита, свежей травы и лёгкой ореховости; часть дегустаторов улавливает винно-хересную бочку, отдельные — намёк на серу, мясистость и слабый дым. Во вкусе он сливочный, жирный, сладкий: печёные яблоки в тесте, ирис, мёд, сухофрукты, изюм, тёмный и белый шоколад, апельсиновая цедра, к которым добавляются дуб, лакрица, перец и умеренная терпкость с горчинкой. Послевкусие большинство описывает как среднее с дубом, шоколадом и молотым перцем.
Расхождение между группами заметное: рядовые ревьюеры ставят 89–92 и хвалят деликатность, многослойность и питкость, сравнивая с прежними Black Art, тогда как опытные держатся в диапазоне 85–90 и высказывают главную критику — концовка неожиданно короткая, суховато-горчащая, а сам розлив «слишком типично магазинный», без убедительной глубины; звучит и мнение, что это «облегчённый Black Art», уступающий настоящим сериям. При этом внутри опытной четверти оценки согласованны и группируются около 88–89, а более сдержанные баллы (85) сопровождаются упрёками в акцентной кислотности, сдержанности носа и слишком быстром угасании; в целом мнения плотно сходятся к «приятно и добротно, но без выдающейся сложности».

Quick hit review. Online tasting 05/2026. Finally a bottle worth buying in travel retail - or so I thought. A bit restrained and rather acidic, the nose offers orange zest, white peaches and red currants - are there wine casks involved? Hints of soot and peppercorn make an appearance. Hmm. Let's not jump to conclusions. On the palate, mashed berries, baked apple and cough drops give way to chocolate, licorice and resinous wood. It turns slightly dry and bitter in the development. The surprisingly short finish features mild citrus zest, lemon balm and dark grapes. To be perfectly honest, I don't find this bottling particularly convincing - textbook travel retail. RATING: 3.7/5.0 stars ≙ 85 pts → ABOVE AVERAGE [+]

The longer you smell, the more you discover. A mix of red fruits and citrus fruits. Cherries, strawberries, orange, peaches, apricot, plums, and raisins. The whole is finished with a mint leaf, a touch of honey, and some white chocolate shavings. A cask finish that, in my opinion, is a combination of wine and sherry casks. |

A blend of subtle honey sweetness and modest bitterness. Diverse disparate flavors that ultimately form a cohesive whole. In no particular order, I detect oak, strawberries, apricots, dried apricots, plums, plum jelly, raisins, white chocolate, dark chocolate, and even apple peel. We finish with a small pinch of pepper. |

A fairly long finish with tannins in combination with the components of the flavor profile. |

Color: red gold. The legs are fatty. The separation speed is average. A wonderful whisky! The casks are clearly stronger than those in the new 21-year-old release! 22 23 22 22

Oh my, I haven't had such a good whisky in ages. It's very delicate in all its glory, sweet, fruity with plenty of honey, orange peel, and lemon notes. A pleasant aroma of strawberry compote with a touch of wild berries. It caresses the palate pleasantly, warming the chest, leaving a hint of dark chocolate aftertaste.

Complex and multilayered, certainly won't be a dram for everyone. Takes a little time to open but when it does, what a cracker.

A very pleasant laddie with a lovely biscuit dough flavor, fruity and with a slightly sweet, nutty finish. Unexciting but very nice to drink!

Ripe strawberries drenched in honey, dark chocolate with orange peel, leather jacket, a bit of oak, cinnamon and cloves, oatmeal with fried apples, shortbread with vanilla cream, a bit of minerality and dirt.

Delicious Laddie, in terms of flavor profile it reminds me of the Black Art 7.1, only slightly less old and slightly less complex. For me, the Sapero is more like a Black Art Light. It tastes good, but not as good as the "real" Black Art bottlings. I paid €190 for the bottle; I might buy another one for €140-150.

Fruity but somewhat reserved. With enough time, it becomes a bit more complex, but still restrained. |

I can only agree with the previous reviewer. This whisky feels like a glimpse into the past – as if a bygone moment has been recaptured. It's reminiscent of my first Black Art whiskies, something like the 4.1, when the fruit was still exuberant, vibrant, and almost boisterous. Not that later, darker depth that evokes polished wood, old books, and long-aged seriousness. Instead, it reveals itself as open, lively, and surprisingly approachable. It definitely needs time in the glass. It's subtle yet pleasant; I can't get enough of the aroma. It smells creamy and nutty, and tastes the same. Not overpowering, not an assault on the senses. A whisky to savor in a quiet moment, away from the hustle and bustle.

This is unfortunately its weak point, if you can call it that. Sadly, it's not a persistent issue. However, I spent a lot of time on noise recording. |
