Claxton's Royal Brackla 12 year old Tawny Port Cask, 58.2%

Price: 170 Issue: Winter 2023 Reviewer: Jonny McCormick Category: Single Malt Scotch

On the nose, this has clean, precise notes of black currant, peppery spice, and new leather. Black currant, dark chocolate, malt, and a brief splurge of pepper on the initial sip, but the best is yet to come. The final phase is like being famished and ravenously biting into a milk chocolate fondant bar, with deep layers of fruit underneath the chocolate. An utterly moreish and delicious Brackla.
