Brora 25 Year Old Cask Strength: a Highland single malt at cask strength
This bottle carries a 25-year age statement and is bottled at cask strength. It is a single malt from Brora, a distillery in the town of Brora in Sutherland, in the Highlands of Scotland. The 0.7 L bottle carries no vintage and is sold as NV. For more bottles like it, see our whisky range.
The 2008 Special Releases bottling
The Brora 25 Year Old was released in 2008 as part of the Diageo Special Releases, at 56.3% ABV in a 700 ml bottle. Diageo, which owns Brora, issued it as a single malt of 25 years bottled at cask strength.
A distillery that closed and reopened
The distillery was founded in 1819 as Clynelish. It took the name Brora in 1968, when a new Clynelish distillery opened. Production stopped in 1983 and the site was mothballed. After a three-year restoration it reopened in 2021, and the first new cask of spirit was reported filled on 19 May 2021. A 25-year-old released in 2008 was distilled in 1983 or earlier, before the closure.
Between May 1969 and July 1973 the distillery made a heavily peated whisky for blending, to cover a shortage of Islay whisky caused by drought. Most of what it produced after 1973 is in a lightly peated Highland style.
Stills and water
The distillery draws its water from the Clynemilton Burn. It has one wash still and one spirit still, each of 13,500 litres.
