Balblair 12 Year Old
The youngest age statement in Balblair's core range. Matured in American oak, ex-bourbon, and double-fired American oak casks, this twelve-year-old expression has an elegant complexity and warmth. The expression recently won Gold Outstanding at the International Wine & Spirits Competition 2022.
This stunning single malt is bursting with flavours of apples, vanilla, and honey. A classic Highland dram.
Balblair 15 Year Old
Balblair's stunning 15-year-old expression. Tropical and mature, with the texture of melted chocolate and one of the finest finishes a single malt can bring, this stunning whisky calls for quiet admiration. Round and velvety, yet developed and fresh. Smoothed over by time, but with a beating heart. The dram was the recent winner of Gold at the International Spirits Challenge 2022 and Gold at the International Wine & Spirits Competition 2022.

Balblair 18 Year Old
A sumptuous 18-year-old dram. This late-night expression is rich and autumnal, developed and amplified to unexpected heights, while staying perfectly balanced and closely tied to the bright and fruity character of the distillery. Spectacular stuff!
This dram is brimming with flavours of apricot, toffee, cinnamon, and cloves.
Balblair 25 Year Old
The oldest expression in Balblair's core range. Rich, indulgent, and fruity, this is a well-aged dram that you do not want to miss. Another globally acclaimed expression, this single malt has won Gold Outstanding at the International Wine & Spirits Competition 2022, Gold at the International Spirits Challenge 2022, and Double Gold at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition 2021.
The nose is indulgent and fruity with apricot and liquorice atop polished oak and a hint of saddle wax. The palate brings rich chocolate praline with faint tobacco leaf and an oily texture, before smooth chocolate and blood orange in the warming finish.
Happy shopping and best of luck!
