북부 하이랜드 해안의 브로라는 1983년 문을 닫은 뒤 전설이 된 증류소로, 그 바다 풍토가 몰트에 깊이 배어 있다. 오크 캐스크에서 20년을 보낸 1981 빈티지는 잔에 옅은 황금빛을 담는다. 향은 밀랍과 옅은 훈연, 짭조름한 바다 내음이 우아하게 솟아오른다. 입에서는 43도의 부드러운 도수가 꿀과 시트러스, 기름진 왁스의 질감을 매끄럽게 풀어낸다. 여운은 옅은 연기와 미네랄이 길게 남아 사라진 명가의 품격을 전한다.

yes, it’s a little shyer but let’s be fair and give it a little time… / … Okay, now it is very expressive indeed. More natural but also fresher than the 1987, starting with fresh butter and vanilla, crystal-clean peat and a whole plate of oysters. It stays very maritime for a while and gets then more medicinal, quite expectedly, with also notes of diesel oil. We have also quite some freshly cut apples, fresh almonds again and whiffs of garden bonfire. This one isn’t too boldly peaty and smoky but rather ultra-clean – yet complex. Excellent

totally excellent again at the attack, punchy, peaty, tarry, coastal and medicinal as it should be but not raw or aggressive in any way. Perfect balance between the sweetness and the phenols, a prototypical ‘Bourbon-style’ Laphroaig. Mr Symington, we hope you still have a few other casks from the same series

extremely long, extremely compact, getting very peppery besides the heavy peatiness, with no flaws whatsoever that I could spot (and believe me, I tried hard). ‘Natural’ Laphroaig in its full glory. Cask #6981 was worth 91 points in my books, this one will fetch 92 points , well-deserved. MUSIC – Recommended listening (blues): Woodleg Odds playing The old man blues.mp3 . I think they are from Norway, please buy their music. April 1, 2007 THIS JUST IN: BREAKING NEWS! ROLLING STONES GUITARIST BUYS SCOTTISH DISTILLERY Edinburgh, April 2007 - On March 30, well-known guitar hero Keith Richards acquired Brora Distillery, Brora, Sutherland. The acquisition of Brora Distillery fulfils Mr Richards’ strategic objective to become a fully integrated distiller, bottler and boozer. The distillery and limited stocks were purchased from Diageo plc, with whom Mr Richards has an excellent ongoing relationship as a customer. This will allow Diageo to increase its focus on its numerous core brands: Lagavulin, Cragganmore, Talisker, Caol Ila and the nearby Clynelish to name but a few. Brora Distillery, situated at Brora on the north-eastern coast of the Highlands, has been distilling whisky since 1819 but was closed in 1983. The single malt it produced was of award winning quality. The small town of Brora also has an excellent golf course, attracting many visitors each year. The Brora single malt portfolio consists of only a 30 years old whisky that was voted top of the Highland malt category several times in the famous Malt Maniacs’ annual Awards. Brora is a well-known and long established brand among connoisseurs. Mr Richards, born 1943 in Kent, has always had strong interests in Scotch single malt whisky. The acquisition of Brora Distillery secures a future for Mr Richards’ private stocks. Mr Richards commented: "As I have demonstrated, with my recent purchases of 2,357 cases of Ardbeg and 1,312 cases of Laphroaig, I have the commitment, the experience and the resources to represent
