Review Brora 30 years old 7th release

By Miguel in Tasting , Brora

“The Highlands peat monster. Enormous Brora whisky!”

91
Brora 30 Year Old / Bot. 2009 Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky
The latest Brora 30 years old is a very welcome return to form. Big and brooding, with a firm peppery, tweedy character and hints of coffee and dark chocolate.

Brora distillery is now closed and these are part of the last remaining stocks that Diageo releases yearly. Brora sunset began with the building of Clynelish just in front of them.

This scotch whisky has been bottled at cask strength.

This dram has a gold-like color.

Nose (91): more than average. peat, wood, fruits, apricot, vanilla, floral.

Palate (91): smooth, powerful, oily. peat, wood, spices, floral, pepper, papaya.

Finish (90): longer than average. peat, wood, spices.

So based on other whiskies I have already tasted I rate this Brora 30 Year Old / Bot. 2009 Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky with 91 points over 100.
