A single cask Blair Athol from Adelphi Selection: distilled in 2008 at the Pitlochry distillery in the heart of the Highlands, matured for 16 years in a first-fill bourbon hogshead (Cask No. 701446), and bottled at 56.9% cask strength in an outturn of just 261 bottles — non chill-filtered with natural color. Blair Athol's robust, fruity Highland spirit takes on a gentle gold hue and layers of orchard fruit, honey, and vanilla cream from the long bourbon maturation, with soft cereal sweetness, delicate oak, and a warming, spice-tinged finish. A well-priced, limited single cask from a distillery rarely seen outside blends.
