Royal Brackla The First Editions Single Sherry Cask #21881 Whisky 13 Year Old · 2011 Vintage
In stock
Bottled for The First Editions range, this Royal Brackla was distilled in 2011 and bottled in 2025 at 13 years old from single sherry cask #21881. Released at a natural strength of 56.4% ABV, with an outturn of 195 bottles, it is a full-bodied Highland single malt where the sherry cask plays a clear and confident role.
Royal Brackla’s spirit carries sherry maturation particularly well, with the cask adding layers of dried fruit, dark sugar and warming spice while still allowing the whisky’s naturally rounded character to show through. The result is a rich, well-structured dram with plenty of depth, where sweetness, oak and spice sit in good balance without losing that distinctive Royal Brackla elegance.

Tasting Notes
Colour
Dark amber with mahogany depth and coppery highlights.
Nose
Rich sherry aroma of dried fruit—raisin, fig and prune—interwoven with dark sugar and warm spice. Hints of orange zest and cocoa drift over toasted oak, revealing Royal Brackla’s elegant, rounded character even in a full-bodied Highland perfume.
Palate
Full-bodied and refined, this Royal Brackla delivers sherried sweetness from start to finish. Dried fruits—figs, raisins, dates—wrap around dark sugar and cocoa, while warming spices—cinnamon, clove—rise over velvety oak. The whisky remains elegantly rounded, with balanced sweetness, oak and spice that harmonise into a long, luxurious finish.
Finish
Long, velvety finish of dried fruit and dark sugar, lifted by warming spice and oak. The sherry cask leaves a lasting echo of fig and raisin, with cocoa and oak weaving through to a refined, elegant finish.
