Royal Brackla 12 years old 1999 NC2 Tasting note

By Miguel in Tasting , Royal Brackla

“Vibrant palate with a lovely nose on this Royal Brackla whisky.”

89
Royal Brackla 12 Year Old 1999 - NC2 (Duncan Taylor)
A 12 years old whisky from the Highlands from Royal Brackla distillery bottled by Duncan Taylor for its NC2 range which consists mainly on whiskies without caramel added and without chill filtration.

Bottled at 46% abc this single malt whisky is an interesting proposal from Royal Brackla.

This dram has a white wine-like color.

Nose (90): more than average. honey, floral, toffee, citrus, vanilla, peaches, green pears. Very floral but quite good.

Palate (89): smooth, powerful, oily. honey, floral, citrus, spices, wood, cinnamon.

Finish (89): longer than average. honey, wood, spices.

So based on other whiskies I have already tasted I rate this Royal Brackla 12 Year Old 1999 - NC2 (Duncan Taylor) with 89 points over 100.
