This is a 16-year-old Royal Brackla bottled by Archives as part of its Fishes of Samoa collection.

The nose is very floral and light, with a clear presence of vanilla. The palate is more expressive, with a balanced sweetness, vanilla and sweet-shop notes. Wood comes through at the end.

About Glenbotal

The idea of Glenbotal came to us naturally: as whisky lovers, we were always on the lookout for new experiences in the whisky world. That’s why we created Glenbotal and became our very own first customers. We buy unique and hard to find spirits from ballots and private collections. Then, we share them with a small circle of friends and people who can appreciate a good dram.
