Description

Aroma :
Full bodied with the classic aromas of fresh green
apples, ground spices and honey. The American oak
ex-bourbon barrels used in maturation impart notes of
oaky vanilla, leather and oranges with a hint of fragrant cut
flowers and smoke.

Palate :
Balblair’s signature style of citrus orchards is followed
by intense sweetness of toffee and vanilla.

Finish ;
Rounded off by a deliciously spicy, long finish. The superb dram is bright and full of character, a ray of sunshine in a bottle.
