LBD Spirits Braeval 2010

Notes from the Bottlers:
A cask we’ve been excited to share for some time. Full maturation white port barrique from a lesser seen Speyside distillery.
Way waaaaay back when LBD was just a sample sharing hobby, Andrew made a little cask, seasoned it with white port and finished an Arran in it to give to friends at the distillery for the 18th anniversary (2013). So once again, there’s a sentimental little nugget for us to get all misty eyed and excited about!
Why we bottled this – We really try to find interesting things, and while we absolutely love bourbon and sherry casks, the opportunity to present full maturation white port casks does not come up very often!
The label – Without getting into a fight about which distillery is the highest, Braeval or Dalwhinnie, let’s call them joint highest. Clouds seemed appropriate!
