Balblair 1999 Highland Scotch Whisky

"There is something quite special about a perfectly matured, Highland single malt whisky. About the essence of a Vintage year, captured in a bottle. About tasting it. Feeling it. 

- John MacDonald, Distillery Manager

Balblair whiskies are uniquely Vintage, their bottles are not marked with an age statement, but simply with the year that the whisky was laid down. Every year, their Distillery Manager John MacDonald, tastes, judges, and selects straight from the cask. And at exactly the right moment, when the balance between the age and the character of the whisky is just right, they bottle it. 

The second release if Balblair 1999 is copper in appearance with flecks of sparkling bronze.

The American oak, ex-bourbon barrels, and Spanish oak, ex-sherry butts used for maturation impart the signature Balblair aromas of honey and green apples, as well as notes of rich, fruity Christmas cake with a hint of spice, citrus, and vanilla. 

On the palate, it is full-bodied, sweet, and spicy in character, with hints of honey, vanilla, and leather. The finish is warm, smooth, and long-lasting.
