Braeval (AKA Braes of Glenlivet)
Tasting Notes
Braeval 13 Year Old 2009 from North Star Spirits is a delightful single malt whisky that tantalizes the senses. On the nose, it greets you with the alluring scents of honeyed barley and chewy dates, complemented by the comforting aroma of buttered bread. As you take a sip, your palate is treated to a delightful medley of sugared almonds and chocolate chip cookies, with a savory touch of oak and a hint of vegetal sweetness. The finish lingers pleasantly, with the flavors of toasted teacake and stewed fruit lingering on your taste buds. Bottled at cask strength and with a limited outturn of only 341 bottles, this expression is a true gem for enthusiasts who appreciate the nuances of a well-crafted single malt from the venerable Braeval Distillery.
