Description

A real rarity, this Royal Brackla was distilled in 1924 and bottled at an incredible 60 years old. The initial 60 decanters were filled for Emperor Hirohito of Japan's 60th birthday in 1984. The remaining whisky was bottled in standard green bottles and given out as gifts to staff and local dignitaries upon the re-opening of the distillery in 1991. Only 62 of this version (the standard green bottle) were ever bottled, making it extremely limited.
