Product description

Product description
Balblair is located in the small town of Edderton in the Scottish Highlands. The distillery takes its time producing the Single Malts, which are matured in traditional 'dunnage' warehouses with clay soils.
In 2019, the distillery introduced a new Core Range, which will replace the Core Range that previously consisted of vintage bottlings.
This 18-year-old Single Malt was matured in ex-bourbon casks and then in first-fill Spanish oak casks, which give the malt additional depth.

The Distillery: Balblair

Die Balblair Brennerei zählt zu den nördlichsten Destillerien in Schottland und liegt nahe der schottischen Ostküste. Der Brennereicharakter lässt sich am besten mit 'sehr fruchtiger und süßer Speyside-Malt' beschreiben. Balblair bedeutet so viel wie fruchtbares Tal, aber auch Schlachtfeld. Dies ist auf eine Schlacht zwischen den Pikten und den Wikingern vor vielen Jahrhunderten zurückzuführen. read more
