"Arguably the best all rounder of the blended whiskies. With oak there are red, orange, yellow and green fruits, with spice, peat and honey. But the outstanding marriage here is that of venerable, old and sherried whiskies and fresh, zesty, younger ones. Brilliant!"

Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep amber with burnished copper edges and a honey-gold glow, a luminous, sun-warmed core.
Nose
Polished oak forms a warm backbone, releasing a bright spectrum of fruit: ripe red berries, citrus zest, and pear under a veil of honey. Spices glow softly, with a whisper of peat and a gentle sherried depth that lingers—elegant, refined, and multi-layered. The nose hints at venerable casks mingling with lively, younger sweetness, a true Blue Label signature.
Palate
Silky, multi-faceted palate where red, orange, yellow and green fruits meet spice, a touch of peat and honey. Oak and sherry lend depth and elegance, while fresh, zesty youthful notes lift the profile. Long, polished finish.
Finish
Long and luxurious, with sherry-nurtured oak giving spice and depth. Red and orange fruits, honey and a faint whisper of peat linger, carried by bright citrus zest. A refined, barrel-aged warmth tapers to a smooth, perfumed sweetness that lingers gracefully.
