Profile: What Makes Ballechin 10 Year Old Special

The 10 year old Ballechin in the small tasting bottle – a single malt whisky from the Scottish Highlands with a powerful smoke and peat note (phenol content 50 ppm), matured in ex-bourbon and ex-oloroso sherry casks.

The Ballechin distillery was one of seven original farm distilleries in Perthshire and operated from 1810 to 1927. It dried its malt mostly over peat fires and produced a strongly peated Highland whisky; Alfred Barnard, who catalogued the distilleries of Britain in the 1880s, mentioned a peated whisky at the old distillery. Of the seven original ones only Edradour is left today – and since 2003 Edradour has been producing a heavily peated single malt whisky under the name of the old Ballechin distillery. This 10 year old is the first age-stated bottling of the range.

Tasting Notes: What Ballechin 10 Year Old Tastes Like

  • Nose: Earthy peat and fragrant spices, plus old leather and a hint of toffee; a pine forest note and freshly cut peat, with time sweeter candy floss notes
  • Palate: At first very fruity peat, then fresh leather, aniseed and dark chocolate; intense notes of dark fruit, vanilla and oak
  • Finish: Lingering fruity peat; herbal syrup with dry cigar smoke at the end

Schönes Getränk, quasi ein Edradour mit Rauch. Was soll da schief gehen?

Ein genialer Dram, dieser Ballechin gehört für mich immer wieder in den Schrank. Seine ölige Konsistenz und seine Weichheit, verbunden mit der Süße im Geschmack (Karamell) und dem süßen Rauch treffen meinen Geschmack. Dazu leichter Torf und dunkle Früchte.
Einfach genial
