- Description
- Brora 35 Year Old represents the eleventh annual release from Diageo's Special Releases program, drawing on stocks from 1976 and 1977 distilled at this now-closed Highland distillery. Aged for 35 years in refill American oak, it showcases the briny, slightly peaty character Brora developed during its final decades of production. The extended maturation has softened the spirit's edges while deepening its maritime and mineral qualities, creating a complex and refined profile. At 48.1%, this is a collector's piece and a historical snapshot of Highland whisky craft.
