Balblair 15 Year Old is a refined Highland single malt that offers a perfect balance between fruity sweetness and rich spice. Initially aged in American oak ex-bourbon casks and then finished in first-fill Spanish oak sherry butts, this whisky develops deep complexity while retaining the signature elegance of Balblair’s craftsmanship.
