Description

Founded in 1820, and originally called Townhead, the distillery sent most of its life under the name North Port although there are several bottlings under the name Brechin. Another victim of the 1983 cull, the distillery's output was mostly used for blending. North Port (Brechin) from the very rare private cellar cask selection. 43% ABV / 70cl.

Nose
It is quite light and bright. There's a buttery shortbread in the background with some fruitier notes in the foreground. Apple juice, lemon zest, figs, blackcurrant scones, and some papaya.
Palate
It starts with something almost smoky and sweet. It's like you're taking a bite into some sugar that's literally just been brûléed, slightly burnt, and is still bubbling hot. Following the sugar comes the distinct note of cinnamon rolls. Some caramel apples, scored rice, and Fig Newton filling.
Finish
Medium in length. You get some more of the cinnamon roll along with some ginger candies and candied nuts (walnuts I think).
