Balblair distillery sits on a remote and unspoiled hillside overlooking the Dornoch Firth in the North of Scotland.
Their single malt is the product of the patience and dedication of their hands-on craftspeople, who won’t settle for anything than the best for Balblair. Never rushed and never compromised. From the exceptionally long 62 hour fermentation and the 4 1/2 hours of extremely slow distillation, it is this measured and thoughtful approach which means we can harness time to create the flavour of our unique new make spirit.
Balblair single malt Scotch whisky is intriguingly complex and satisfying. We capture the intense esters at the start of the spirit cut to give our Whisky the core characteristics of apricots, oranges, spices, floral notes and green apples. The heavier oils and lipids at the end of the cut are also captured, giving leathery, nutty and full-bodied characteristics.
