Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Bottled by: Douglas Laing 70cl / 46%
A single cask Blair Athol 2011, bottled as a 10-year-old in 2022 by Douglas Laing for their Provenance series.
Cask DL15574 was a refill bourbon barrel of Blair Athol 2011 that yielded 312 bottles at the Provenance series standard bottling strength of 46%, and of course has been bottled without colouring or chill filtration. Great to see more Blair Athol from non-sherry casks, this should be delightful.
