Dave Broom
87- Nose
- Mature and deep with a superb layering effect: ripe fleshy autumn fruits. Then fudge, citrus and a leather/bung cloth note.
- Palate
- Deep with good grip. Real power and a figgy depth, but then it lifts once more into cherry stone/maraschino. One to sip slowly.
- Finish
- Long, silky.
- Comment
- Yet another superb Balblair which chimes perfectly with the official bottlings.
Martine Nouet
82- Nose
- Nutty, oaky. Malt and oak are well integrated. Sherry in the back. Strong coffee.
- Palate
- Rich with lots of caraway and curry (not revealed by the nose!). Warm feel.
- Finish
- Dry oaky and spicy.
- Comment
- Quite a warming fellow. A real character. For winter… or a rotten summer!
