Established since 1790 in the historic heart of the Highlands, Balblair is the oldest distillery in this region still in operation. Hidden from view, hidden in the picturesque setting of the Dornoch estuary, it is located on a former gathering place of a Pict tribe. A place steeped in history, in which the distillery perpetuates centuries-old traditions, at its own pace. Through an artisanal approach and a quest for perfection in aging, the whisky produced reflects the place and the men who have lived here for generations: a welcoming, generous, elegant style distinguished by an incomparable fruitiness.

Their artisanal approach and attention to detail have helped establish their reputation in the world of independent bottlers.
Nose : Rich and complex. Notes of candied fruits (orange, apricot) mixed with aromas of honey and sweet spices. A touch of leather and roasted nuts brings depth, with a hint of lemon zest in the background.
Palate : Smooth and powerful. The sherry influence is felt with flavours of dried fruits, dark chocolate and roasted coffee. Notes of spices (cinnamon, pepper) develop, balanced by a vanilla sweetness and a hint of salted caramel.
Overall : Long and warm. Persistence of candied fruits and spices, with a touch of old oak and liquorice. A slight tannic astringency brings complexity, while a subtle note of candied orange and vanilla lingers.
