Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
full gold
air Nose
well, at first nosing, it seems that good old Brora doesn’t have much say here, but the general feeling is still very nice. Starts on rather big notes of sultanas and apricot pie... Wait, no, Brora, slowly starts to shove its way, with first something delicately smoky, then bigger notes of wax polish, and finally notes of smoked ham and burning beeswax mingling with the sultanas. All that is more delicate and balanced than it sounds, that is, with also whiffs of sea air
restaurant Palate
again, the wine does most of the talking at first sip, but the distillery is soon to strike back with more pepper this time, a little peat (not much), wax, cough syrup (and pine resin sweets) and something a little metallic/mineral (hard to describe). Stays very sweet globally
timer Finish
rather long, sweet and peppery, with notes of very ripe stawberries and a a little orange marmalade. And a little sweet curry
