Royal Brackla 2006 cask # 1804 / 17YO / 54.1% / Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Region: Highland
Cask: Refill Re-charred Hogshead
Style: Classic
Finish time: approx 4 years and 3 months
Colour: Golden straw.
Nose: Much going on. An immediate hit of benzaldehyde and toasted oak, which then settles down to sweet and salted popcorn, with a touch of rum and raisin fudge.
Taste: The influence of cask and distillate are well-balanced here. So soft and creamy. Coconut ice cream and some really mellow vanilla custard notes. There are some very nice spices present too, specifically nutmeg and ginger
