The Brora 6th Release Diageo Special Releases 2007 is a distinguished 30-year-old whisky that harmoniously blends sherry and bourbon influences. Bottled in 2007, this rare gem from the Brora Distillery—renowned for its complex and captivating whiskies—comes with an impressive ABV of 55.7%, further enriching its multifaceted character. With only 2,958 bottles available, this Highland treasure is a highly sought-after collector's item.
On the nose, the whisky opens with an aristocratic blend of raw peat and nougat notes, interspersed with Highland shortbread and coal smoke, reminiscent of a cozy farmyard. The intricate aroma is complemented by hints of apple peeling, fresh walnut, linseed oil, damp earth, chalk, and even a touch of horseradish or mustard.
The palate is powerful yet refined, delivering an immediate burst of sharp and zesty flavors. Lemon, mustard, raw ginger, green apples, cardamom, liquorice, and tar dominate, but with a splash of water, the whisky unveils layers of lemon cake, sweet mustard, quince jelly, smoked tea, kippers, and marzipan.
The finish is long, buttery, and extraordinarily rich, leaving lingering notes of peated lemon, mint, tar, and lemon-sprinkled oysters. This Brora whisky is exceptional in its complexity and balance, taking water well to reveal even more depth. While it is a no-vintage bottling, it may contain vattings from different vintages, which only adds to its intricate profile.
