Highland Single Malt Whisky
Bottled By North Star Spirits 70cl / 49.5%
A 2006 Blair Athol 16-year-old from indie heroes North Star Spirits' Cask Series 21, this was bottled at the end of 2022 after finishing in an Oloroso sherry hogshead.
Blair Athol is always a safe bet and is particularly well-suited to sherry casks as fans of the early Flora & Fauna bottlings will already be well aware. This 16-year-old Blair Athol 2006 has clearly benefited from its time in the Oloroso hogshead, which turned out 287 bottles at a bracing 49.5%.
Please note that this North Star Blair Athol 2006 is Strictly Maximum 1 Bottle per Customer / No discounts can be used against this product.
