Blair Athol 20 Year Old Douglas Laing Old Particular 1995 Single Sherry Cask DL10890 Norway Exclusive for Uisge Beatha (2016) 70cl

This marvellous sherried Blair Athol was bottled for Uisge Beatha's 20th Anniversary. Uisge Beatha is one of the most prominent whisky clubs in Norway.

This cask was selected together with Fred Laing and Jaerens Aeveridge.

One of the best whiskies in a sherry cask is a good Blair Athol. Owned by Diageo, it gives a palate of dryness, milk chocolate, raisins, dates and figs, old oak & brown sugar that is immensely enjoyable. For those familiar with an aged Blair-Athol they will know it well. For those who do not, this is the start of a new love for those who are of that sherry camp.

TASTING NOTES

Aroma: Charming with dried fruits: pressed apple and fresh squeezed lime infuse with banana, dried apricot, ; hints of vanilla, dried raisins, and cocoa powder remain.
Taste: Dry, smoked melon, nectarine, and banana abound. Red apple emerges and transforms into milk chocolate subtly highlighted by hints of oak.
Finish: Long and intricate with bursts of pepper and mature oak.
