Balblair Vintage Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky (1 Litre) 2004 Vintage

Colour

Bright golden amber with warm copper undertones and a sunlit honey glow.

Nose

Opulent orchard-fruit notes—apple, pear and citrus zest—rise with a honeyed vanilla backbone. Sherry influence reveals dried fruits, fig and a whisper of cacao, while toasted oak and spice (cinnamon, nutmeg) add warmth. A bright malt lift keeps the bouquet fresh and refined.

Palate

Silky and vibrant, the palate opens with citrus zest and ripe pear, woven with honeyed vanilla and soft oak. Sherry-cask influence brings dried fig, raisin and almond, while ginger, cinnamon and nutmeg spice the mid-palate. A long, warming finish, balancing sweetness with elegant oak.

Finish

Long, refined finish with warm sherry-influenced sweetness. Dried fig and orange zest linger with vanilla and toffee, followed by gentle spice—cinnamon and nutmeg—soft tannins and polished oak fading into cocoa and a bright citrus note.
