Balmenach 14 Year Old 2001 (cask 12129) - The Old Malt Cask (Hunter Laing)
14 year old single malt from Balmenach, a distillery that you don't see an awful not of single malt from, as much of it goes into blends. However, indie bottlers like the Hunter Laing chaps do sometimes get their hands on casks of their single malt for us to enjoy! This is a 14 year old expression, matured in a refill hogshead from November 2001 to November 2015. A release of 348 bottles.
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Rather biscuit-y (think Custard Creams and Hobnobs), with tinned peaches and dried apricots developing.
Palate
More vanilla-rich custard notes. Quite nutty, too.
Finish
Orange pith, almonds and the last hint of vanilla bean.
Overall
A creamy single malt from a distillery we don't hear enough from.
