Berry Christmas, everyone! The Christmas bottling from our fancy-trousered chums at Berry Bros & Rudd is a Royal Brackla 2007 that started life with 12 years of maturation in refill hogsheads before a generous two year finishing period in a Pedro Ximenez sherry butt, and is designed as the perfect post-prandial Christmas whisky.
Bottled at a festive 50.6%, only 539 bottles of this Christmas Edition Royal Brackla were yielded from the sherry cask, so if you want a Royal dram to watch the Queen with on Christmas Day you'll need to be quick.

Tasting Notes
Nose: The nose is a wonderfully spiced mix of fresh and dried fruits; apples, pears and melon from the distillate and sticky figs and dates from the wood.
Palate: The palate leans more towards the thick sherry wood influence with prunes, clove rock, toffee and honeycomb all swirling round.
A perfect seasonal dram to get your claws into after a busy Christmas Day!

Admittedly, I haven't tried every whisky in the world. I like the Laphroaig, peaty and uncompromising end of the single malt scale. This is my current favourite. A brutal and beautiful drink. Harsh and refined; sour and sweet. Dangerously tasty. A real find for me, this one.
I acquired mine after someone had poured it away, and used the empty as a candle holder. Despite imbibing this Glenrothes from a drain, it was decent. 57.1% seemed to remove any of the drain ickiness. It has also somewhat dulled the pain I'm still in from recently trapping my, ahem, in my zipper.
