Blair Athol Decadent Drams Single Cask Single Malt Scotch Whisky 28 Year Old · 1998 Vintage
In stock
This Blair Athol was created by marrying together two refill hogsheads of 1998 distillate, then bottling the result after 28 years at a natural cask strength of 52.4% ABV. Limited to 160 bottles, it is a small batch release where refill wood has allowed the distillate to remain front and centre throughout maturation.
That approach suits Blair Athol particularly well. The result is a wonderfully classical style of the distillery, robust, waxy and deeply characterful, with rich maltiness, soft fruits, gentle spice and old-school weight all combining into a whisky that showcases the muscular spirit with clarity and balance.
