Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky Bottled by: Gordon & MacPhail 70cl / 50.5%
A single cask Balblair 1998 23-year-old Highland single malt whisky bottled without colouring or chill filtration by Gordon & MacPhail in 2022 for their Connoisseurs Choice Cask Strength range.
Cask 1075 was a first fill bourbon cask of 23-year-old Balblair 1998 that yielded 190 bottles at its natural cask strength of 50.5%. Balblair is one of those brilliant Highland distilleries whose spirit is blessed with the gift of extreme longevity in either bourbon or sherry casks, so this 23-year-old should be tremendous stuff.

If you like your Whisky matured in a sherry cask then you will not be disappointed with this one, the flavours transferred from the Oloroso butts are unmistakably sherry, with a mixture of fruitiness coming through once you’ve added a slug of water, in my opinion at this cask strength you need need a good measure of H2O to really appreciate this very fine reasonably priced Whisky.
Definitely would buy again !
