Ballechin 2008/2026 - 17 y.o. - 1st Fill Ruby Port Cask #179
Special features: The Ballechin 2008/2026 is a 17-year-old whisky that has matured in a 1st Fill Ruby Port Hogshead. This bottling comes from the smoky line of the Edradour Distillery, located in the Highlands of Scotland, and is presented by Signatory Vintage at cask strength with an alcohol content of 57.9%. The whisky is not chill-filtered, which intensifies its aromas. It is packaged in a metal tin that underscores its exclusive nature.
Tasting Notes:
- Nose: On the nose, dark berries, ripe cherries, and red fruits emerge, intertwined with strong peat smoke, chocolate, and a fine wood spice.
- Palate: On the palate, it is complex and intense with sweet port wine fruit, dark chocolate, and smoky, earthy notes. The clear and smoky structure is supported by a velvety sweetness.
- Finish: The finish is very long and fruity-smoky, characterized by notes of dark berries, cocoa, and dry oak.
