This 21 Year Old Whisky started its journey maturing in American Oak Ex-bourbon barrels for 15 years. However, its distinctive character was created by an extended further maturation period.

Balblair 21 Year Old

The newest of Balblair’s core selection, the 21 Year Old began its journey maturing within American Oak ex-bourbon and double fired American oak casks for 15 years, before being moved to the finest, hand-selected, Spanish oak Oloroso wine casks. For the final six years, its distinctive character is developed, the casks imparting spiced fruity flavours and deep, rich colour.
