So this is a small batch bottled by Signatory Vintage, without chill filtration or artificial colouing. It’s a rich herbal sherry whisky, it’s complex, interesting and very pleasant, cannot belivie it's only 10 years old. Matured in first-fill pedro ximenez sherry hogsheads, this 10-year-old Royal Brackla delivers deep, sherried character. Aromas of dried figs, dark toffee, and nutmeg lead into a palate of rich fruitcake, caramelised nuts, and a touch of spice. The finish is long, with lingering sweetness and warming oak spice Nose - Honeysuckle tea, salted dried yellow fruits, honey, sticky rice, some metal, a slight grassy peat feeling, a flash of incense Taste - Salted liquorice candy, purple grape flavour hard candy, floral honey, tea feeling, silky smooth, light-medium body, very easy to drink, later there's a light herbal spicy smoke rising. Although it's young there are still a lot of details. Finish - Medium long, sweet herbal, dried fruits, mint chocolate, a vague floating saltiness weaving with the sweetness, metal feeling appears again slightly, a bit bitterness at the end. Again, this is a great value whisky, Signatory are releasing some absolutely stunning whisky’s at the moment at higher proofs and without chill filtration or artificial colouring. I think they really understand the market at the moment, as a passionate whisky enthusiast I begrudge paying top dollar for 40% chill filtered, colour added bog standard product……now infact I won’t buy it. It is so nice to be able to get to try some of these absolutely fabulous distilleries produce how It should be (Again in my humble opinion), without the money people (corporations) ringing every last penny out of it, generally to the detriment of the whisky. This is the best Royal Brackla I have tried, it’s also so much cheaper than others I have tried. Great Whisky well worth it.
