A rich, full bodied sherry cask matured expression of Blair Athol, bottled by industry stalwarts Hunter Laing
- The Laing family have been in the Scotch Whisky business for more than three generations. They specialise in maturation, buying in new make spirit and laying it down to maintain full control of quality
- Blair Athol are one of the most underrated distilleries in Scotland. No less than 99.7% of their production is used to add spice and character to Bells Blended Whisky. Occasionally however, we see an independent release
- On these occasions this Highland liquid is allowed to shine in all its glory. This 11 year old expression was distilled in 2011 and bottled in 2022 with a total of 259 bottles being drawn from a single sherry butt
- The nose is packed with notes of vanilla, custard, apricots and honey
- The palate is round with notes if caramel over ginger sponge cake building towards a finish of toffee and dark muscovado sugar
