Brora 1982 2006 Gordon & Macphail Connoisseurs Choice - 43% 70cl

From the Gordon & MacPhail Connoisseurs Choice range, this whisky was distilled at the now-closed Brora distillery in January 1982 and then bottled in February 2006.

The Brora distillery was built in 1819 by the Marquess of Stafford, although it was known as "Clynelish" until the opening of the Clynelish Distillery in 1968, whereupon the name of the original Clynelish was changed to "Brora".

Between May 1969 and July 1973, Brora produced a heavily peated whisky to supply for blending; this was done to cover a shortage of Islay whisky caused by a drought in that region.

Most of the whisky produced as Brora after 1973 is in the lightly peated Highland style.

Please note as this is a vintage bottle, conditions of bottle/label and liquid level can vary - Some years can vary as estimations only (example: estimated 1970s/80s).
