Brora (silent) 2005 Special Release Single Malt Scotch Whisky 30 Year Old

Colour

Deep, rich amber with mahogany-bronze core and coppery-gold glints at the rim.

Nose

Intense peat smoke and sea-salt aromas rise in a briny whisper, anchored by iodine and coastal mineral notes. Underneath, rich sherry influence unfolds with dried fig and raisin, orange zest and toffee, while waxy malt, leather and faint cocoa add depth to a polished, maritime perfume.

Palate

Opulent, full-bodied palate with velvety oiliness and coastal peat. Sherry notes cloak dark plum and fig, accented by cocoa and spice, while citrus lift keeps it bright. Long, saline finish with resinous oak and Brora's signature maritime bite.

Finish

Peat smoke and maritime brine persist into a long, velvety finish, where sherry-dark fruit notes—dates, fig, cocoa—unfold against warm oak. A touch of iodine and leather lingers, slowly fading to spice and understated sweetness, leaving a refined, mineral-coated warmth.
