Taste note

  • Colour:

    Deep amber

  • Nose:

    Vanilla crème, some sweet ans slightly sharp fresh berries and gooseberries - much fruitier than the 12 & 16 year olds.

  • Palate:

    Regal and assured Syrupy toffee notes, with richly fragrant summer berries warmed by the sun and dusted in cinnamon, muscovado sugar and chocolate flake with just a few dark spices adding complexity.

  • Finish:

    The green edge seen in the other expressions seems to appear on the finish with cocoa, chocolate sponge and cream.

  • Conclusion:

    The oldest of three new Royal Brackla single malts launched in 2015 as part of the Last Great Malts from John Dewar & Sons. Distilled slowly, with plenty of reflux and matured in Oloroso Sherry casks, this is a special whisky.
