Royal Brackla 12 Year Old Batch 1 (That Boutique-y Whisky Company)

Appearance: pale yellow Aroma: light caramel, sweet, mild, like a highland toffee bar (if you recall them) Flavor: light, crisp, and clean, with some citrus fruit. Finish: medium and sharp.

Harsh and slightly unrefined. It carries prominent citrus and lime notes, along with some caramel. A surprisingly persistent and sharp salty aftertaste lingers for an extended period. This one doesn't suit my preference.

Aroma: citrus, lemon, a slight brine, and a touch of vanilla. Flavor: abundant citrus, lemon rind, slightly woody, pepper, and apple. Finish: very light pepper, all citrus, and alcohol.

The nose presents with smoky, spicy, and sweet characteristics. The body is syrupy and spicy. A slight alcohol sting is present on the finish. Overall, it's quite enjoyable. This was the seventh day's selection from an advent calendar.

The nose is very sweet, with notes of honeycomb and floral elements. Citrus, candied lemon, and a hint of orange peel are present. It has a dry finish.

A citrusy lemon aroma. Pepper spice and honey. A strong, lingering spicy finish.
