Tasting Notes

This Blair Athol 12 Year Old 2008 Bordeaux Edition is a truly unique and captivating single malt whisky that will delight your senses. The initial nosing reveals a delightful blend of sweet caramel and sugary fruit notes, complemented by a subtle hint of green oak and gentle spice. As you take a sip, your palate is embraced by a delightful medley of jammy fruit notes, nutty chocolate, woody liquorice, and a whiff of baking spice. The finish is a lingering delight, with spiced fruits, gingerbread, pressed red grape skin, and peppery oak flavors dancing on your tongue. This whisky's unique character is derived from its maturation in a single cask, followed by a finishing period in a Bordeaux wine barrique, imparting a gloriously vinous fruit character. With only 383 bottles produced, this is a truly exclusive and remarkable whisky experience.
