Braeval Secret Speyside Braes Of Glenlivet Single Malt Scotch Whisky 30 Year Old · 1989 Vintage
Out of stock
The oldest official bottling from the Braes of Glenlivet distillery (now known as Braeval). It was one of the first automated distilleries in Scotland and one of the first to adopt an open-plan space for their layout. Although the distillery has a pagoda roof, traditionally used for malting, no malting has ever taken place. This has been matured in American Oak barrels and hogsheads.
Tropical notes on the nose with aromas of mango and root ginger. Fruity flavours intensifying on the palate with juicy orange, blackberry jam and marzipan coming through, resulting in a long-lasting, sweet finish.

Tropical nose with ripe mango and a lively note of root ginger, delivering a bright, fruity bouquet with a hint of spice.
Palate
Fruity flavors swell on the palate, with juicy orange, blackberry jam and marzipan unfolding into a long, sweet finish.
Finish
Long, sweetness-drenched finish that lingers gracefully. Orange zest and blackberry jam drift into marzipan, carried on a soft vanilla-honeyed echo from the American oak, fading to a warm, fruity-sweet finale.
