The Balblair 18 Year Old is a late-night expression that is rich, autumnal, and exceptionally well-developed. This Highland single malt reaches unexpected heights of complexity while remaining true to the bright and fruity character of the distillery. Aged initially in American oak ex-bourbon casks and finished in first fill Spanish oak butts, this whisky combines depth and charisma, resulting in a luxurious experience that is both refined and warming.
With an oiled cedar hue, this natural-colour, non-chill filtered whisky offers an inviting nose of rich toffee and baked pears against a backdrop of new leather. The palate unfolds with a masterful balance of juicy apricots, seasoned oak, and creamy vanilla custard, delivering a complex yet harmonious tasting experience. The long, warming finish reveals fresh spices and sweet raisins, making it the perfect dram for those who appreciate both depth and balance.
Crafted slowly in traditional dunnage warehouses on earthen floors, the Balblair 18 Year Old reflects the distillery’s commitment to quality and the preservation of its distinctive Highland character.
