BLAIR ATHOL 23 YEAR OLD 1993 SINGLE MALT SCOTCH WHISKY 58.4% 700ML

A superlative example of Blair Athol, one of the Highlands' most legendary distilleries. Characterised by Blair Athol's signature nutty, spicy character, this cask-strength single malt is full of candied peel, baked apples, chocolate and fruit-cake flavours.

TASTING NOTES

NOSE:
Sour apples, green leaves (tarragon and mint) and chocolate with a hint of sandalwood. Sultanas and raisins build along with candied peel and brown sugar. Water brings out orange zest, candy necklaces and floral hints.

TASTE:
Rich and rounded with toffee and caramel sauce drizzled over singed fruit cake. Light notes of sweet baked apple float over the top, along with light, spicy fruit cake. Darker and more savoury notes of damp earth and green leaves hide underneath. Water dials up the savoury notes, revealing barrel char and bitter cocoa but balancing it with sweet cream.

FINISH:
Treacle toffee and lardy cake leading to lemon oil and apple skins.

OVERALL:
A combination of sweet and savoury that delves more into the herbal and darker side of sherry-cask character.
