This is a single malt from Balblair, from the 1990 vintage, bottled at cask strength (58.4% ABV) by Gordon & MacPhail for its Connoisseurs Choice range. George Urquhart created the range in 1968. This bottling is one of 469. The nose opens with soft cinnamon, stewed plums and a hint of orange peel, followed by muted sherbet and subtle strawberry jam. The palate starts with toasted malt, then ripe green apple and dry oak, with soft fruit cake, black pepper and hints of cashew nuts. The finish is medium to long, with aniseed and desiccated ginger.

About Glenbotal

The idea of Glenbotal came to us naturally: as whisky lovers, we were always on the lookout for new experiences in the whisky world. That’s why we created Glenbotal and became our very own first customers. We buy unique and hard to find spirits from ballots and private collections. Then, we share them with a small circle of friends and people who can appreciate a good dram.
