Blair Athol 12 Years Old Rare Find

ABV: 56.1% 70 cL

This single malt was distilled in 2013 at the Blair Athol Distillery in the beautiful town of Pitlochry, known for their rich Highland spirit. This single cask release has been matured exclusively in a 1st fill ex-bourbon barrel, a perfect match that enhances the distillery’s natural depth and elegance while allowing its classic character to shine through. 

Bottled at natural cask strength, without chill-filtration or artificial colouring by Gleann Mòr Spirits. 

Nose

Buttery shortbread biscuits are laced with golden syrup and are joined by apple turnovers alongside crumbled cashew nuts. Gentle white pepper and split vanilla pods offer a warm complexity.

Palate

A syrupy and thick arrival delivers baked apples, pastry cases and a dash of tart lemon juice. The mid-palate offers additional patisserie delights from iced buns and orchard turnovers

Finish

Lingering on brown-sugar sprinkled apples with a refined oak influence.

Blair Athol Distillery was established in 1798, situated south of the scenic town of Pitlochry, by John Stewart and Robert Robertson. Initially, it was called Aldour, named after their water source. However, the distillery didn't see much success, and it was soon closed. In 1826, John Robertson reopened the distillery and renamed it Blair Athol. Since then, it has changed hands several times and is currently owned by Diageo. Blair Athol’s nutty and spicy malt is now at the heart of Bell's Blended Whisky.
