Royal Brackla 2007 10th anniversary (Liquid Art)
Royal Brackla 2007 10th anniversary (Liquid Art), ~17 YO, 51.7%
Still celebrating the 10th anniversary of independent bottler Liquid Art. Here they have picked out a Royal Brackla distilled 2007, matured in an undisclosed cask type, and bottled 2024. Limited to 161 bottles. This is a joint bottling, also to celebrate the 20th anniversary of Cask Six. As far as I can see this is the 32nd bottling from Liquid Art. Impressive, guys! With this I have reviewed 9 out of those 32.
Nose: Ripe red apples drizzled with honey, followed by mellow citrus, leather, and milk chocolate. Over time, a vibrant tropical fruitiness emerges.
Taste: Full-bodied and delightfully fruit-forward. Orchard fruits take the lead, enveloped in caramel, honey, and creamy milk chocolate.
Finish: Medium to long. Sweet and textured, with a chewy quality reminiscent of chocolate mousse and fudge. Subtle, playful citrus notes dance in the background.
Comment: Luscious and indulgent.
Score 88/100
Sláinte!
