Other Info:

Each Balblair Vintage captures the essence of its year in a bottle. They're only ever selected at the absolute peak of perfection. Handpicked, to represent the very best our Distillery has to offer.

You'll notice our bottles are not marked with an age statement, but simply with the year that the whisky was laid down. From then, every cask is sampled, judged and selected by John MacDonald to find its optimum maturation point. The point at which each Vintage says it's ready.

The Vintages are intriguingly complex and satisfying. We capture the intense esters at the start of the spirit cut to give our Vintages the core characteristics of apricots, oranges, spices, floral notes and green apples. The heavier oils and lipids at the end of the cut are also captured, giving leathery, nutty and full-bodied characteristics.

Press:

"A refreshingly modern single malt from one of Scotland's oldest distilleries. Light and bright, but underlaid with soft toasty vanilla and caramel from ageing in old bourbon barrels." - Damian Barr, The Times
