BALBLAIR 1975 1ST RELEASE
HIGHLAND SINGLE MALT
Distilled: 1975
Bottled: 2007
46% ABV / 70cl
The Highland distillery of Balblair, overlooking the Dornoch Firth, produces a light fruity and complex spirit, a result of its slow, decidedly old school production methods.
First marketed as a single malt in the year 2000, it wasn’t until 2007 when they expanded the range (prioritising vintages over age statements) that Balbair really took off. Despite this, in 2019, the distillery made the move back to age statements in order to appeal to a broader clientele. However, there will be a few diehard fans who will miss the era of vintages.
