Mossburn BLAIR ATHOL 2013- SINGLE CASK 57.2% [very limited]
70cl, 57.2% – Scotland
The Mossburn Vintage Casks range are a collection of Single Malt Scotch Whiskies each issuing from a strictly limited and select batch of casks. Each numbered release will only ever yield a finite number of bottles. While this means that we can never replicate the particular character of this Single Malt, it also offers an opportunity to sample what we believe to be an exceptional example of the whisky made by one of Scotland’s most distinguished distilleries.
Blair Athol Distillery has long supplied rich malty spirit to many a blended whisky. Aged for over 10 years in barrel and finished in Monbazillac cask bills, expect orange blossom with a little honey, parma violets and vanilla fudge on the nose. A light vinous edge backs it up. The palate is initially forthright and juicy, following with spice and creamy oak, some oily undertones more mixed spice and a little cotton candy.
This select Single Malt Scotch Whisky has been bottled at cask strength without any colouring or chill filtration.
