Braeval 16 Year Old 2010 55.8% 70cl

Get set for something wildly unexpected: Speyside single malt Scotch distillery Braeval is totally reimagined for Soho Selection with full maturation in a peated ex-Palo Cortado octave. The result is mouthwateringly delicious with tropical fruits, white chocolate and an irreverent industrial smoke note. It’s bold, fun and thoroughly fascinating – exactly how we love our whiskies.

Tasting notes:

Nose: Initially quiet, complexity quickly builds with ripe tropical fruit and white chocolate, which is set against a pleasingly oily backdrop. The smoke is well-integrated and subtle, initially coming across more as a fascinating textural note than the slightly metallic profile it settles into.

Palate: A waft of industrial smoke cements its presence, which unfolds into dried dark fruits, espresso and savoury spices. Jammy berries sit alongside petrichor, with charred asparagus, too. An earthy honey underscores the incredible complexity with a dash of floral sweetness.

Finish: Medium length with lingering honey, gritty smoke, and those savoury spices.

Why We Chose It

An ex-peated Palo Cortado cask is always going to be fascinating. This one is especially expressive. We love the big smoke and savoury sherry notes – they balance perfectly with that classic Braeval fruit The cask yielded just 92 bottles – this is a properly esoteric release that expresses all the vibrance of Soho Selection.
