Tasting Notes
This 17-year-old Ballechin single malt is a true gem crafted by the whisky masters at Edradour Distillery. Distilled in 2004 and patiently aged in a refill Fino sherry butt, it unveils a captivating character that dances between smoky and fruity notes. The nose greets you with a tantalizing aroma of grilled pineapple and paprika, accompanied by a heavy, seductive smokiness and a touch of anise. On the palate, roasted almonds and flamed orange peel mingle with a delightful crunch reminiscent of Frazzles, while baked earth notes provide a earthy depth. The finish is long and richly smoky, leaving a lingering warmth that invites you to savor every sip. With only 629 bottles released, this Ballechin expression is a rare delight that whisky enthusiasts won't want to miss.
