Tasting Braes o’ Glenlivet 21 Year Old – Single Cask (MoM)

Braes of Glenlivet or better known as Braeval is the highest distillery in Scotland and we braes-of-glenlivet-21-year-old-single-cask-master-of-malt-whiskyseldom get single casks bottled from there, which is a real reason to be merry. As I have tasted almost No Braevals , i was not sure what to expect, but this one turned out to be a lovely creamy and sweet dram, with a lot of exotic fruit going on. I am not sure if this is the distillery style, but either way I love this one.

Braes o’ Glenlivet 21 Year Old , 47.40% , £64 [Mom]

Nose: Quite sweet fruit and exotic : Banana peal , kiwi , wood varnish, sweet malt, honey, and some wood spice.

Palate: Creamy mama! this is lovely , sweet and creamy. with quite a lot of fruit inside, wood, some nutmeg, vanilla, and butter. honey too. Banana cooked in coconut milk.

Finish : Ssweet juices, wood bark , fruit and honey.

Lovely stuff, very very sweet and fruit, great after meal treat.

In short : Go get one stat. the definitive desert dram. for a great price. a real no brainer. Currently the favourite from their new Single Casks releases.

Score: 90/100

  1. Totally agree with you on this one, Gal. I really loved it! And with that price tag it deserves to be labeled “Best Bang For The Buck” too! // JB
