Balblair, the Highland single malt Distillery, has released their 21 Year Old expression. This permanent addition to the Balblair portfolio is the oldest single malt in Balblair’s core collection.
Balblair’s 21 Year Old single malt expression makes its debut in the United Kingdom this month, before rolling out to other markets including Europe, North America and Asia in the coming months.
Starting its journey in carefully selected American oak ex-bourbon barrels, the blend then spent fifteen years maturing before moving on to 6 years in Spanish oak butts, seasoned with Oloroso wine. Bottled at 70cl with an ABV of 46%, Balblair 21 Year Old (RRP £300.00) will be exclusively available to buy from The Whisky Exchange from 29th September before rolling out to other whisky specialist retailers from Monday 2nd October.
John MacDonald, Balblair’s Distillery Manager, said, “Balblair’s 21 Year Old is the culmination of our commitment to craftsmanship and the timeless art of whisky-making. From the moment the spirit touches the cask until it reaches full maturity, every detail is carefully nurtured, resulting in a remarkable whisky that flawlessly captures the essence of Balblair.”
