Royal Brackla 17 Year Old 48.8% Single Malt Scotch Whisky 70cl

Default Title InStock

This 17 year old single malt boasts a complex and pleasant nose with notes of honey, chamomile tea and lemon zest - mouth-watering.

Some fresh pineapple appears alongside, but overall, this dram is more floral than fruity, with a refined malty background. Lovely, almost creamy mouthfeel. Definitely a winner in the aperitif section. Would do very nice with a serving of lemon custard tea cakes.

Distillery: Royal Brackla

This distillery was founded in 1812 by Captain William Fraser and one of only three that are allowed to use the affix “Royal” in their name (the other two being Royal Lochnagar (1845) and Glenury Royal (1825-1985). The Royal Warrant was first issued by King William Iv in 1835 and later renewed by Queen Victoria. Technically each new monarch has to grant such a warrant again, which has not happened. So, in effect, the distillery currently has no Royal Warrant. Maybe King Charles III will amend this. Nevertheless the label still sports the full name. Brackla originally was part of the Dewar’s portfolio, with Aberfeldy, MacDuff, Craigellachie and Aultmore as sister distilleries. The fivesome was acquired by Bacardi in 1998.
