Description
James Eadie bottled this Royal Brackla single malt, a 10 year old release from 2013, drawn from cask 302358 and bottled at 58.9%. 285 bottles in all. Royal Brackla, built in 1812 by Captain William Fraser in the Highlands on the estate of Cawdor Castle, is the first Royal distillery in Scotch. Captain Fraser, late of the army in India, shipped his spirit south to beat the local smugglers.
Double distilled in tall copper pot stills with upward angled lyne arms, giving the refined, lightly spiced make at its heart. An American oak cask shaped it, flattering the elegant, fruity make. Younger here, it keeps a crisp, fragrant freshness over light honey. A gentle, unhurried maturation suits the refined Royal Brackla character. It is one of only three distilleries permitted to carry the Royal name in Scotch. Queen Victoria renewed the royal warrant in 1838, confirming its regal standing.
Bottled at a cask strength 58.9%, it is rich. The refill oak lending honey and vanilla runs under a refined, fruity sweetness. A dried fruit and a gentle oak spice give it real depth. The finish is deep, spiced and rounded. This is a fragrant Highland single malt of real finesse.
