Description

Balblair 21 Years Whisky

Balblair 21 Years Whisky is a masterclass in patient maturation and meticulous craftsmanship. This whisky begins its journey aging for 15 years in American oak ex-bourbon barrels, developing a core of rich, vanilla sweetness. It then undergoes an additional six years of maturation in hand-selected Spanish ex-Oloroso sherry casks, which impart deep fruit and spice notes, as well as a rich, deep color. The result is a whisky of elegance and depth, capturing the essence of Balblair’s commitment to small-batch production and slow, deliberate aging.

Production details: Balblair 21 Years is crafted in small quantities, ensuring attention to detail at every stage of the process. The first 15 years of aging in American oak ex-bourbon casks build a foundation of tropical fruits and sweetness, while the final six years in Oloroso sherry casks add layers of complexity with notes of spice, dark fruit, and rich sherry influence. This dual maturation technique results in a whisky with a multidimensional profile that is both captivating and refined.

Serving suggestions: Best enjoyed neat to fully appreciate the intricate balance of tropical fruits and warm spices, or with a splash of water to open up the deeper sherry notes. This whisky pairs beautifully with rich desserts like dark chocolate tart or spiced fruitcake, enhancing its elegant and complex character.

Additional information: Balblair’s commitment to quality over quantity is reflected in this 21-year-old expression, which captures the distillery’s hallmark style of creating whiskies with depth, elegance, and a captivating complexity. It is perfect for collectors and connoisseurs alike who seek out finely crafted, small-batch whiskies.
