Tasting Notes
Imagine a symphony of flavors that transports you to the rugged Scottish countryside. The Ballechin 14 Year Old 2004 (cask 4) is a masterpiece, a harmonious blend of earthy smokiness and fruity delights. The nose invites you with a captivating aroma of smoky embers intertwined with funky raspberries and rich hot chocolate. As you take a sip, the palate awakens with a delightful dance of roasted barley, velvety violets, and chewy raisins, while a hint of red chilli powder adds a playful kick. The finish lingers, revealing stewed berries and a touch of black pepper, leaving you craving for more. This peaty treat from Edradour, bottled under their Ballechin name, spent 14 years maturing in a cask that once held Burgundy wine, infusing it with a unique character. Bottled at cask strength in January 2018, this limited edition of 406 bottles is a true testament to the art of whisky-making.
