Blair Athol 8 Year Old 2015 - Benchmark (Murray McDavid)
This eight-year-old single malt from Blair Athol joins the Benchmark collection from indie bottler Murray McDavid. Distilled in 2015, the whisky initially matured in bourbon hogsheads before finishing in a combo of first-fill Port and Madeira casks.
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Summer fruits and berries, buttery oak, candied nuts, biscuity malt.
Palate
Rich notes of cherries join floral layers of honeyed stone fruits, with a touch of peppercorn warmth beneath.
Finish
Creamy notes of milk chocolate, a touch of nougat and sweet cakey spice.
