Balmenach Berry Bros & Rudd - Single Cask #121 Whisky 12 Year Old · 2011 Vintage
In stock
Balmenach Distillery can be found at Cromdale, one of the crossing points on the upper stretches of the River Spey. Like many malt whiskies, very little is bottled as single malt, especially older examples.
Tasting Notes:
At first sniff, zesty and grassy notes rise out the glass followed by vibrant green fruits and orange. The palate is wonderfully citrusy, with tangy Granny Smith apples and a pleasing dollop of spirit sulphur. The finish brings grilled lime, barley sweets and a touch of hay. This is a thoroughly pleasing, distillate driven dram.

Tasting Notes
Colour
Rich amber with a warm coppery glow and honey-gold highlights, a glossy, sunlit depth that hints at sherry influence.
Nose
An opening rush of zesty, grassy aroma rises from the glass, unfolding into vibrant green fruits and bright orange zest. Fresh, citrusy and subtly herbaceous, with a clean, distillery-driven lift that hints at the whisky’s character.
Palate
Citrus-forward and vibrant on the palate, with tangy Granny Smith apples and orange zest. A subtle dollop of spirit sulphur adds a spark of intrigue, while grassy, green-fruit brightness lingers with a clean, refreshing lift.
Finish
Grilled lime, barley sweets and a touch of hay linger in the finish. It stays bright and citrusy, with a malted warmth that gradually fades to a gentle grassy echo.
