Nose: Nutty with sherried notes. Gentle peat. Crisp.
Palate: Good body, malty and sweet. Citrus and the peels thereof.
Finish: Peat smoke, syrup. Good sweetness, bittersweet, drying.

The Blair Athol must be one of the best kept secrets amongst malt whisky drinkers, it's one you must try before you die.

If you like your sherried malts, this is an absolute must. I toyed with the idea of buying a bottle for the last few years. After glowing review, after glowing review I decided to purchase a bottle. Wow, so glad I did. Fantastic Whisky. What are you waiting for?

I've tried many reputable whiskies now after several years and one of the most exciting things for me is to buy a new bottle with the hope that it's going to be the best I've ever had. My favourite up until now was the Powers John's Lane 12, with Ardbeg 10 being a close contender. Well, that ends today. My new favorite is this little beauty, the Blair Athol 12. Nose: nuts, toffee, raisins, sherry, a hint of leather, tobaccopalate: dark chocolate, raisins, tobacco, leather, an almost dusty quality to it, and a hint of roasted coffeefinish: (this is the most surprising of all) it lingers for quite a long time, with a sudden and unexpected burst of sweetness from the toffee, over and over, with every swallow, it seems to get sweeter and sweeter with the soft lingering taste of chocolate, coffee, and the ever-present tobaccotruly sublime. One of the best. 9.2/10

purchased the small sampler, which disappeared very quickly...wished I bought the full size. loved, loved the sherry cask and smooth, syrupy finish
11th January 2018
Nose: Fresh and Dried fruit. Touch of leather, tobacco. Sherry with a hint of sulphur. Taste: Smooth, full-bodied, sweet, tobacco and a hint of sherry sweetness. It's ok but if you're sensetive to sulphur it's not gonna tick all the boxes.

I bought a 200ml bottle at the distillery in Pitlochry last week. Wish I had gone for the full bottle instead. I actually bought 3 bottles and now wish I hadn't given the other 2 away as presents.

This is absolutely a 5-star expression in my opinion from a distillery that routinely produces outstanding whiskies--and at a price that is rather remarkable considering the depth of character and palate of flavors. Those flavors come at you subtly from front palate to well past the back palate. I get the expected caramel, but in an unexpected density that is somehow backed up by subtle fruit--citrus to my taste buds, but subtle, and the if you really take you time and let the whisky flow across the back of your tongue you'll detect a subtle, fleeting peatiness that does nothing but add intrigue and then is gently buried by sherried orange and a touch more caramel with hints of vanilla. This might be the best sub-$60 whiskey I've ever enjoyed.

If the taste of the wild hedgerow could be bottled then Blair Athol is it hints of wild black berries and wild black currants are there for the taking with a mellow peat back ground it's all there, there is no roughness in it's perfection of flavor which will leave you wanting more and even if its been some years since your last drop. The memory of it's taste is an overwhelming thing that makes you want to come back for more

Upon first tasting this dram, I am struck with the sweat malt, and the almost caramel syrup. Followed by a smooth sweet finish that dries, and it far more complex than most 12yo. This expression is a great deal at this price and I strong recommend two bottles, one to drink and one to keep as a back up gift for any new scotch drinker!

Sweet and smooth with subtle peat, this 12 year old punches way over its age. Blair Athol has become my go to 12 year old and is it a great way to introduce friends to Scotch Whisky, without breaking the bank. I am a GlenDronach man, given my druthers, but for the daily finger or two, BA is in the front of the cabinet!

just try it

The subtle peat, dry orange notes with gentle sherry notes makes this whisky a great one. The finish is a tad short to my liking but a great whisky for a 12 year old. Fine and smooth. This will make it for the evening when you are in no hurry and want to spend a good 2 hrs with a malt as a companion. Dont rush through.

Outstanding! Extremely smooth malt. I'm annoyed I only bought one bottle.

I have been drinking single malt now for 4 decades and have been delighted by the quality and variety of flavours. I have many favourites but if pressed really hard I would have to say that Blair Atholl has become my favourite in the last 2 years. has everything. delicacy. depth. flavour. Aromatic and earthy. genius.

Great achievement - good cigar in a dram:))) At the beginning fresh, sherry tobacco leaves, then satysfying palate on spicy, burnt cigar! Nice aftertaste on orangy cigarettes.9/10.
