Brora
1980 - Single Malt Whisky - Prima & Ultima Second Release
The very last of the 1980 casks, distilled during the golden age of peated Brora. Stored separately for safe keeping, reunited for this final 1980 release. A fitting tribute to a great legacy aged in American Oak for 40 years, its fragrant smokiness lingers in the long, warming finish. The Prima & Ultima 2nd Release has been personally hand-selected by Master of Malts Maureen Robinson; "I hope this final ultra-rare release of 1980 Brora pays fitting tribute to a great legacy.”
