Balblair
Balblair 1975 (37 year old) 46%
Bourbon
Dist: 1975 Btl: 2012
Tasted: Aug 2012
A sensuous and mature nose with plenty of sawdusty oak and succulent, macerated fruit. Wonderfully honeyed with a slight perfumed edge to the honey. Dense, deep and exotic with the fruit bordering on the tropical.. Seriously luscious with a thin seam of smoke and light peat. This is nose is incredibly complex and layered, with an ethereal quality but at the same time a chunky depth. A late perfumed orange and touch of herbal spice add to the enjoyment.
Sensuous and deep on the palate. Malt and mature fruit intertwined with mature oak vanillins glide over the tongue. Luscious and juicy, brimming with mature honey, citrus and a slight herbal, grassy note. There are huge globs of molten herbal honey on the middle, which fades majestically into a soft, yet fresh, herbal and spicy finish. The oak grips slightly at the end but there’s still enough honey to counter that. Evocative, complex and amazingly fresh for its age. Stunning stuff!
