Probably the cheapest dram of Brora I have ever seen at only 30 SGD for a 10ml dram! Not a bad Brora, especially given the cheap price, but definitely the most underwhelming dram from this distillery that I’ve tried

Probably the cheapest dram of Brora I have ever seen at only 30 SGD for a 10ml dram! Not a bad Brora, especially given the cheap price, but definitely the most underwhelming dram from this distillery that I’ve tried

Nose

Waxy & oily, sweet but not overwhelming, fruity, slightly floral; definitely no signs of peat here

Body

The palate is a bit fuller than I expected, again with more fruits and a bit of spices

Finish

Medium, salty aftertaste before getting spicy again
