Balblair have changed their focus from vintages and move towards age and cask choice. This single malt has been matured initially in American oak, ex bourbon casks, followed by time in the rich influence of the first fill Spanish oak butts.

On the nose it is leatherwood honey and spicy gingerbread followed by juicy prunes and fresh lemon peel. To the palate we get a velvet texture, bursting with dark chocolate, tropical fruits and spices. The finish is long and mellow, with notes of cream, vanilla and citrus.
