Product description

Product description
This 17-year-old Balblair Single Malt matured in ex-bourbon casks and first-fill oak butts from Spain, which shaped its depth and flavour character. The whisky was bottled without chill-filtering and in its natural colour.

The Distillery: Balblair

Balblair
Balblair
Balblair
Balblair is one of the most northern distilleries of Scottland. It lies right next to the Dornoch Firth and was established in 1790. The distillery character is best described as 'very fruity and sweet Speyside Malt'. Balblair means fertile valley, but also battlefield. This is traceable to a battle between the Picts and the Vikings many centuries ago. read more

Aroma: feine Vanillenote, die an Toffee erinnert, frische Frucht und eine hauchzarte Holznote

Geschmack: voll, ölig, mit Noten von Bitterschokolade und Mokka, die 17 Jahre deuten sich durch schön eingebundene, trockene Würze an

Abgang: mittellang, warm, dann leicht süßer werdend und die Schokoaromen kommen wieder. Das leere Glas riecht wunderbar nach Wildhonig und Nüssen

Kommentar: Für mich stimmt das Preis/Leistungsverhältnis. Sehr schön ausbalanciert und rund. Tipp !!!!
