Brora 37 Year Old 2015 Limited Edition Single Malt Scotch Whisky

This limited edition bottling is from the closed distillery at Brora on the Sutherland coast and one of only 2976 worldwide. A magnificently confident smoky and sweet expression – if a chocolatier made a malt it would surely taste like this. 50.4% ABV Appearance A deep yellow gold with exceptional beading. Nose Cautious yet welcoming: a smoky fresh-lit fire giving way to candle-wax and herbs. Soft sultana cake become malty with toasted coconut honey lemon zest and subtle wood smoke. Body Medium to rich soft. Palate Powerful at cask strength – syrup-smooth with the sweetness of dark chocolate truffles to start then spicy mouth-drying and faintly charred with hints of wood smoke and ripe red berries. Finish There’s a peppery tingle in the warming finish which is oaky and herbal with dry coating tannins. Behind notes of roasted coffee lead to a clean aromatic conclusion while spice remains in the lingering aftertaste. With water it’s lighter more cedary and waxy
