Notes
Single cask, port-matured, cask strength 18 year old Ballechin, exclusive to Luvians.
Distillery Note:
Ballechin is the heavily peated malt that we make at Edradour, using malt that is usually peated to a level of at least 50ppm. Distilled on 20th April 2004 and filled into cask number 202, a carefully selected first use Port hogshead, and the spirit was fully matured in that cask.
Burnt orange in colour, the spirit reveals notes of soft black grapes, dates, prunes, spicy herbs and saddle leather, wrapped around the rich smoke and peat from the Ballechin spirit. Hints of cinnamon and leaf tobacco also emerge on the finish. Despite its relatively low strength, this is a feisty malt.

Briny, smoky and herbal characters leap from the glass….Initially a hit of sweetness (vanilla) then a wave of smoke, which leads on to spice and a lovely sugared almond note to the finish.

Ash, dates, unripe wild strawberries and burnt brown sugar on the nose. Salty notes on the palate, with some red fruit character and ginger spice, with a waxy finish.

Delicate honey with dried flowers on the nose, all tied up with a very pleasant, nostalic wave of malt extract. A sip takes you on a wee journey past honey, through little peaks of citrus, into a calm valley of malt. Citrus returns at the end to ask about your trip…
