In stock

<p>Ballechin is the heavily peated distillation we have been making at Edradour Distillery since 2003.</p><p>Distilled using barley which has been infused with peat to a level not less than 50ppm.</p><p>This bottling is predominantly from ex Bourbon casks with a generous top dressing of ex Oloroso Sherry casks, to create added depth and greater complexity. It has been bottled at 46%, without chillfiltration, to retain the true cask character.</p><p>The name Ballechin originates from a fellow Perthshire farm distillery, which sadly closed its doors in 1927. There, Alfred Barnard, who catalogued all the distilleries in the UK in the 1880’s, made reference to having experienced a peated whisky.</p><p><br><strong>Tasting Notes</strong></p><p><strong>Nose</strong>: Herbal and grassy with sweetened smoke</p><p><strong>Palate</strong>: Chocolate oak over spicy, earthy smokiness. Complexity rolls over the tongue.</p><p><strong>Finish</strong>: Smouldering burnt heather on Highland hills</p>
