По текстовым отзывам виски описывают как сливочный/мягкий и очень фруктовый, с мягкой шерри-нотой; несколько отзывов отдельно отмечают ноту лака/мыла в носу. Оценки в текстах варьируются (80–88).
развернуть подробно
В отзывах, где есть текстовое описание, Royal Brackla 2008 MSWD чаще характеризуют как сливочный/мягкий и очень фруктовый виски. Один из отзывов пишет о «very creamy/smooth and extremely fruity», отмечает «subtle oak notes in the nose», а классические шерри-ноты находит слабо выраженными; при этом снимает один балл за «somewhat special varnish note in the nose». Ещё один отзыв также говорит о «incredibly fruity, sweet and paired with a great creaminess», о шерри-ароматах, которые «not too dominant», и о том, что характер дистиллята хорошо проявляется. Другой отзыв описывает «Nice honeyed malt with a sherried accompaniment», «Light and not a heavy sherry», «Easy to drink and enjoy». Один из отзывов — «Smooth whisky with a soft sherry note», с «Fine sherry note, red fruits… strong bourbon vanilla… soapy perfume note» в носу и «soft sherry tones, soapy… vanilla… very soft texture» во вкусе; там же указано, что при усилении окисления напиток «loses a little of its balance and strength». Ещё один отзыв содержит только оценки без текстового описания (N83 G82 A82).
Поскольку текстовых отзывов несколько, можно говорить о повторяющихся мотивах в этих текстах: мягкость/сливочность и фруктовость, а также мягкая, не доминирующая шерри-нота. При этом в двух отзывах отдельно упоминается нота лака/мыла в носу, а в одном из отзывов она названа возможной помехой («could be perceived as disturbing»). Оценки в текстовых отзывах различаются: 85, 88, 80, 86 ещё несколько отзывов даёт 82 без текста. Финиш описывают по-разному: один из отзывов — «warming… a good amount of oak… some bitter notes… pear»; ещё один отзыв — «Light spice, touch of oak, sour cherries»; другой отзыв — фруктовость с «slightly bitter notes… Roasted coffee beans, espresso, nutty moments»; один из отзывов — просто «Medium length».

This is something different. Overall it is very creamy/smooth and extremely fruity. I also like the subtle oak notes in the nose. Classic sherry notes, on the other hand, are not very present here. One point is deducted for the somewhat special varnish note in the nose. The palate is less special and really very nice. Thanks to my wife for this gift. The bottle has been with us for several years.

Strawberries with varnish to start, creamy/smooth, later changes into a broader fruit mix (including citrus fruits and apple), because of the varnish notes I have the association with a shiny red apple (i.e. an apple coated with clear varnish), almost no spice from the wood, the fruity-smooth character is in the foreground, sugared raspberries, also pear, over time some oak notes come to the fore (well integrated and not too intrusive), orange, perhaps also a slightly floral honey, not at all biting in the nose (very soft), sometimes also brightly colored fruit, I don't really find classic sherry notes, right at the end also grain/malt, the varnish note is not of the old school type (could be perceived as disturbing), I always have different notes (very changeable/variable), but overall it is also a special thing and not everyday

great sweetness to start with, similar to the nose (but not as special and less varnish), tingling, very nicely fruity (various fruits), the sweetness gives the impression of ripe fruit, red apple, light and perfectly integrated oak notes, the sweetness lasts, later dry notes are added here and there

warming, a good amount of oak sets in quickly, oak lasts longer, slight tingling (carbonic acid) in the middle, some bitter notes in between, pear, I don't notice anything more than that

Color: gold with a slight red tint Viscosity: oily Dram: undiluted Conclusion / history: The Royal Brackla distillery, founded in 1812 by William Fraser, is located in the Highlands in northern Scotland. In 1835, following a decree by King Wilhelm IV, it was the first distillery to use the addition Royal as part of its name and to supply the royal court. After a turbulent period in which the distillery's grounds were used as a base by the Royal Air Force during the Second World War, the owners of the distillery at that time subjected the distillery to a comprehensive renovation in 1965/66 and closed their own malt floors. Royal Brackla no longer malts itself. The distillery has a total of six wooden washbacks and two stainless steel washbacks. The fermentation time is 70 hours. In 1970 the Royal Brackla Distillery expanded from two to four stills. The long fermentation time, the long forerun (30 minutes), a slow distillation and the reflux through the rising Lyne Arms of the distillery create a very fruity and elegant style. Bacardi has owned the distillery since it was sold by United Distillers (now Diageo). The master blender is Stephanie Maclead (since 2006) who has been with Bacardi since 1998 and she is one of the few women who heads a distillery. I think that the barrel management is terrific with these Carn mor fillings and that the character of the distillate comes through very nicely and is not covered by the barrel. The malt is incredibly fruity, sweet and paired with a great creaminess. The sherry aromas are not too dominant and only underline the fruitiness and the basic character of Royal Brackla. A really great malt and the alcohol strength is just right from my point of view. This whisky is really fun My rating system: 100-95: Exceptional whiskys 80-94: top whisky 50-79: standard whisky 0-49: flops

The nose starts off sweetly with a certain creaminess, accompanied by a nice fruitiness. Melted butter, granny's freshly cooked vanilla pudding with red jelly, fresh sweet popcorn from the fair, a whole potpourri of fruits, mirabelle plums, apricots, unripe oranges, but also dark fruits like raspberries and blackberries, freshly cooked strawberry jam, lemon zest, with time it becomes always fruity, almost like ACE juice, bags of snacks that you absolutely want to reach into, gummy bears, light liquorice notes, light barrel char, ginger hot, old leather sofa, nutmeg, apple compote

The taste also shows beautiful fruity notes paired with a great creaminess on the tongue. Light peppery notes. In general, however, fruity notes of oranges, mirabelle plums, apricots and sugared raspberries predominate. Freshly cooked vanilla pudding, liquorice snails, fresh peeled oranges, cooked strawberry jam, caramel candies, light ginger spiciness, ACE juice, gummy bears, fresh popcorn in the cinema, red fruit tea, blackberry jam

The finish is once again a nice conclusion to the fruitiness, which is complemented by slightly bitter notes. Roasted coffee beans, espresso, nutty moments of almonds, peanuts and pecans, but overall the fruity notes that have already been described remain

Smooth whisky with a soft sherry note. With increasing oxidation, it loses a little of its balance and strength. It was still fun and will be fondly remembered - 02/05/2021
