In this tasting, we had two Brora expressions from 1982, and they are quite different, although neither betters the other. This one was quite meaty, like a roasting pan. There was still classic oiliness, but the fruits were dried, like malt loaf and sultanas. The palate is spirit-led suggesting a weak (well-used?) cask, but the whisky is by no means weak. Spices come through on the finish, with youthful touches of caramelised syrup.
