The First Vintage Distillery release from the Ballindalloch Distillery.
Based in Speyside Ballindalloch was founded in 2014 on the estate of the same name. Home to the Macpherson-Grant clan since 1546. Ballindalloch is Speyside's first true 'estate distillery'.
The 2015 vintage has been created from 80% ex-bourbon casks and 20% ex-sherry casks, all matured for at least 8 years.
This 2015 Vintage is part of a UK exclusive release and serves as the first 'core' product from Ballindalloch Distillery.
Limited to just 3,600 bottles and exclusively for the UK market.
No Chill filtration and natural colour.
Nose: Elegant and robust. The aroma seduces with rich dried fruits and floral notes. Hints of orange zest and dark chocolate.
Palate: Rich with dark cherries and stewed plums. Robust notes of sweet sherry, leather, and smoked oak.
Finish: Long, rich and full. Think Christmas, spiced fruitcake and a lingering sweetness.
