Tasting
How it drinks
Sight
Dark amber with warm copper tones; medium-full body. The Spanish oak finish adds significant colour depth
Nose
Oatmeal with cinnamon brown sugar, dried apricot and clove. Oranges, guavas, walnuts, cigar tobacco, cappuccino, dark chocolate pralines and good cinnamon
Palate
Chewy and soft mouthfeel, spicy from clove, dry with oak but balanced. Black pepper and cinnamon are bold. The Spanish oak finish adds dried fruit richness
Finish
Earthy finish with garden soil notes. Persistent spice and the signature Balblair orange character lingers
