Derived from the Latin verb ‘Sapere’ referring to high discernment and wisdom, Black Art Sapero pays homage to the ancient art of whisky making and lays bare the unparallelled knowledge and skill of the Head Distiller.

An enigmatic practice which relies on nature, knowledge and the quiet passing of time, the art of whisky making has captivated and intrigued for centuries. Black Art Sapero is testament to this inimitable mastery, showcasing the extraordinary talent of our Head Distiller, Adam Hannett.

Marking a new chapter in the coveted Bruichladdich single malt Scotch whisky series, Black Art Sapero is the latest release from the Hebridean distillery. A Travel Retail exclusive, the limited edition 19 Year Old whisky is bottled at 47.8% ABV and uses exceptionally rare, pre-renaissance Bruichladdich stocks, with the casks quietly maturing in the depths of our Islay warehouses for the entirety of their maturation life.

Unique and unrepeatable, Black Art Sapero remains cloaked in mystery, with only Adam privy to the final recipe.
