Ballechin 11 Year Old 2007 (cask 226) - Straight From The Cask
What happens when peaty whisky meets wine casks? This sort of thing. It's an 11 year old Ballechin (that's the name Edradour uses for its peaty whiskies) that matured in a Bordeaux wine cask from May 2007 to September 2018. 383 cask strength bottles were produced, each one presented in a tiny little crate.
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Peanut brittle, hot Ribena, charred oak and a hint of dried earth.
Palate
Rather festive, with cinnamon, nutmeg, chocolate-coated raisins and roast chestnuts.
Finish
Liquorice, peppermint, strong peat smoke and toffee apples.
