Royal Brackla Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky 12 Year Old
In stock
The full bodied spice of Oloroso and the bright summer breeze of Royal Brackla elegantly combine as a smooth and inviting dram – ripe peaches, black cherries, chocolate covered almonds and muscovado sugar.
For over two centuries this Scotch sanctuary has woven a whisky tale that’s steeped in history. Standing upon fertile farmland on the Cawdor Estate in the Scottish Highlands lies Royal Brackla Distillery, founded by Captain William Fraser in 1812.
A distillery quite literally Fit for a King, Royal Brackla was the first Scotch whisky ever granted a Royal Warrant, by King William IV in 1833 – The King’s Own Whisky, still reigning true today. The distillery's style is opulent and fruity with rich sherried notes.
Every expression of Royal Brackla is finished in the finest first-fill sherry casks, sourced directly from Spain to ensure an opulent outcome for a noble drink.

Tasting Notes
Colour
Luxuriously deep amber with coppery highlights and a mahogany undertone.
Nose
Opulent Oloroso spice and sun-bright fruit on the nose: ripe peaches and black cherries mingle with chocolate-covered almonds and muscovado sugar. Hints of toasted oak weave through a warm sherry sweetness, delivering a regal, inviting aroma that speaks of first-fill cask maturity.
Palate
Opulent, full-bodied and smoothly spiced, the palate unfurls ripe peach and black cherry fruit, intertwined with chocolate-covered almonds and muscovado sugar. First-fill Oloroso sherry lends a warm, velvety sweetness that lingers into a refined, extended finish.
Finish
Opulent and long, the finish lingers with Oloroso warmth and regal spice. Dried fruit, velvety nuttiness, and muscovado sweetness echo notes of ripe peach and black cherry, crowned by chocolate-covered almonds—an enduring, sumptuous fade.
