- Description
- Brora's 1982 vintage, bottled by Gordon & MacPhail in 1999 as part of the Connoisseurs Choice range, captures this Highland distillery's character just one year before closure in 1983. The spirit shows the distillery's characteristic peaty and maritime influence, though specifics remain elusive without tasting notes. At 40% ABV, it represents a historical snapshot of a now-silent distillery. Highly sought by collectors of closed Scottish distilleries.
