Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep burnished amber with coppery-bronze sheen and a warm mahogany edge.
Nose
Opulent sherried bouquet with polished oak. Ripe dried figs, dates and raisins mingle with orange zest, vanilla and toffee, forming a velvety sweetness. Cocoa and warm spices—cinnamon and clove—emerge, alongside hints of leather and tobacco. A refined, regal aroma that speaks of long maturation and Royal Brackla’s noble heritage.
Palate
Silky and opulent on the palate, this Royal Brackla delivers sherried richness: raisin and fig sweetness intertwined with orange peel, cocoa and toffee. Toasted almond, gentle spice (cinnamon, clove) and polished oak lend structure, finishing long, warm, and refined.
Finish
An enduring, sherried finish that lingers with velvety warmth; dark raisin, fig and cocoa mingle with gentle spice, while oak tannins fade to a refined, honeyed glow.
