Jean-Marie Putz

The Brora distillery is still present in the Highland landscape, even if it is closed since more than 20 years. It is currently used as a warehouse for the new Clynelish distillery.
Whisky from the Brora distillery are more and more difficult to find (20 years after its closing), and the prices are growing. The malt is characterised by its peaty taste, which is rather uncommon for whiskies from the scottish continent. This Signatory edition is really nice, even if it is too expensive.

At the second tasting, the nose detected a strange mix of sweet freshness and some medicinal character. Some cut grass mixed with some peat.
In the palate, sweetness quickly gives way to some slight acidity, but without any aggression. Some far hints of smoke, mixed with a discrete presence of sherry announce a rather long and very pleasant finish.

The nose, mix of honey, smoky peat and fresh cut grass is quite amazing.
The mouth recognizes the same combination of peat and smoke, surrounding a honeyish smoothness with some remote citrus hints and is not really convincing, especially if one knows other productions of this distillery.
The finish, in the same notes, is quite long.
