Blair Athol
Tasting Notes
The Blair Athol - Skene Whisky is a delightful sherried single malt from the heart of Scotland's Highlands. Upon nosing, it unveils a delightful aroma reminiscent of a decadent millionaire's shortbread, accompanied by notes of raisins and a subtle grittiness evocative of barley. On the palate, it tantalizes the senses with a delightful fusion of strawberry laces, spicy cinnamon, and zesty ginger, all harmoniously enveloped in a comforting embrace of malt loaf generously slathered with salted butter. The finish lingers with the sweet essence of stewed berries, subtly complemented by a whisper of ground coffee, leaving a lasting impression that beckons for another sip. This independently bottled gem, meticulously matured in Oloroso casks and bottled at a robust 48% ABV, is a true testament to the art of Scottish whisky-making.
