Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt

Nose Bright aromas of delicate flowers, light citrus blossom and a trickle of honey.

Palate Oranges and lemons, fresh and fruity. More honey? Yes indeed!

Finish A fairly spicy finish.

Overall Classic Balblair brilliance.

Reviews for Balblair 2003 - 1st Release
Subtle, smooth and basic. My new favorite
This pour is captivating from the start. The color is lighter than other highland offerings but not weak or watery. Aroma is simple but direct, a very confident recipe. I use a single ice ball and let the whisky own the glass for a moment or two. The first draw is kind, hints of citrus and honey drop. The finish is smooth and soothing.

Superb
A soft malt with a honey aroma. Taste and aroma accentuated with a little water. A first rate whisky.

Hot hot hot!
For me this is pretty spicey, but oh so good. Slightly sweet, and leaves a lovely warm tingle on the tongue. Hints of hot toddy maybe? Will buy again!

Mouthbuzz
Gorgeous whisky. A drop of water brings out the honey/orange flavour but certainly doesn't dampen that firey finish. What a mouthbuzz!

Beautiful single Malt whisky - the 03 was a beautiful Whisky, highly recommend - would love another bottle but finding it seems to be a bit of a challenge.

a superb dram
I am usually a fan of heavily sherried whiskies so I didn't expect to think much of this. I was completely wrong though - it's beautifully balanced and as good as anything in this price range
