A special edition for Mother's Day joins our exclusive Master of Malt Single Cask collection. Distilled at Blair Athol in 2015, the whisky spent the next decade maturing in a single refill hogshead, developing glorious notes of butter, toffee, and apricot. With elegant label artwork by abstract painter Katie Murrell, this handsome Highlander is far better than a bouquet of flowers in our book. A release of 376 bottles. That's 376 very smug mothers.
Juicy barley, creamy grist, and sweet, biscuity malt open the way. Browned butter financier cakes, apricot jam, and fresh apricots, too. It's creamy and rich, with tropical hints of pineapple and dulce de leche.
Superbly soft, with vanilla buttercream, a touch of clotted cream fudge, and peach fromage frais, backed by toffee pennies and mellow, buttery oak. Gentle spices gather beneath, with more soft stone fruits in tow.
Vibrant barley lingers, a more savoury touch of oak pokes through for just a moment, with blanched almonds, butterscotch, apricot pastries and softly spiced butter biscuits.
