Royal Brackla Mossburn Vintage Cask Batch #41 Whisky 16 Year Old · 2008 Vintage
In stock
The Mossburn Signature Casks range of whiskies showcase the typical characters of Scotland’s regional malts. They are classic expressions of their provenance, with further influence from our signature casks which were designed specifically to enhance the characteristics we look for in each of these exemplary malts.
These whiskies were first aged in American Oak barrels prior to their initial blending, and were then matured for a second period in our specially coopered custom-made Mossburn Casks. These casks were built to our specifications, or Cask Bill, with each of the malts having its very own: Cask Bill #1 for the Island and Cask Bill #2 for the Speyside.
These Blended Malt Scotch Whiskies have been bottled without any colouring or chill filtration.

Tasting Notes
Colour
Rich golden amber with warm coppery highlights.
Nose
Opulent sherried aromas of fig, raisin and dried cherry rise over rich toffee and vanilla, while orange zest, cocoa nib and a whisper of spice—nutmeg and cinnamon—dress a polished, oaken backdrop.
Palate
Silky, full-bodied palate with dried fruit—raisin, fig, date—interwoven with dark chocolate and toffee. Orange zest and warming spices (cinnamon, clove) ride a soft, sherry-influenced oak, while vanilla caramel coats the tongue. Elegant, velvety mouthfeel leads to a long, spice-laden finish with a lingering oak kiss.
Finish
An elongated, warm finish where oak and spice linger, weaving dark chocolate and dried fruit into a silky, resinous fade. Subtle sherry sweetness hints through vanilla and almonds, leaving a refined, enduring warmth that clings gracefully.
