Brora Triptych marks the return of one of Scotland’s most storied ghost distilleries. Created ahead of Brora’s reopening after nearly four decades, the collection features three remarkable single malts drawn from some of the distillery’s final pre-closure casks. Elusive Legacy (48 years old) captures Brora’s rare earthy style, Age of Peat (43 years old) reflects its fleeting heavily peated era, and Timeless Original (38 years old) showcases its signature waxy character. Limited to just 300 sets, each presented in hand-carved ash with crystal decanters, Brora Triptych celebrates the distillery’s past while heralding its revival.

Nose

Sherbet lemon, cut grass, lemon zest

Palate

Oak spice, beeswax, citronella

Finish

Lemon zest, gunpowder smoke

Sherbet lemon and cut grass bring freshness to the nose. The palate stays measured, with gentle wood spice and a waxy feel supporting the citrus. The finish is light, sweet and faintly smoky.
