Dram of the Month                             

October 2007

Brora 30 year old Cask Strength

Highland Single Malt

A 30 year old whisky from a closed distillery is enough to start making your mouth water. This whisky definitely lived up to my expectations. Heavy peat balanced by sweet notes and leather. This dram was big and impressive and had a great nose that had many Islay characteristics. Had that ancient feel and you knew you were drinking something special. Still retained enough fire to waken the taste buds and keep you interested.

Nose: Wow!, heavy peat, iodine, big, fruity, oak, very leathery, musty
Body: Medium
Finish: Long and flavorful, floral, peat, leather, oak

Big and impressive.

Cheers,
Glen
