Brora 30 2009 Release

Country: Scotland

Region: Highlands

Type: Single Malt

Bottler: Distiller

ABV: 53.2%

Score: 96 Points

The nose is rich and woody with notes of campfire smoke, pepper, butterscotch, and a hint of coconut. The taste is strong and spicy with an oily and thick mouthfeel. There’s just a touch of oak, lime, and banana to go along with the spices, and the finish has hints of brine, seaweed, and hazelnuts. An extremely well-balanced and amazing dram!
