- Description
- Edradour's Ballechin 10-year-old (2009) is a cask-strength, unfiltered peaty Highland malt drawn from a single bourbon cask and bottled at natural strength. Smoke-forward character builds alongside orchard fruit and vanilla oak, with the bourbon cask providing coconut and cereal notes beneath the peat layer. Robust mouthfeel and a lingering medicinal finish reflect both the distillery's phenolic style and cask-strength intensity. A no-compromise expression for peat enthusiasts who value transparency and cask influence.
