- Description
- Blair Athol's 17-year-old from 2007 matured exclusively in first-fill oloroso sherry butts, then bottled at 57.1% ABV by Signatory without colour correction or chill filtration for maximum intensity. The robust cask strength preserves sherry richness, dried fruit, spice, and the distillery's heathery Highland character with striking clarity. Texture is full and oily, with a warming, long finish driven by sherry tannins and alcohol heat. A powerful expression for whisky drinkers seeking uncompromised Highland character with serious sherry influence.
