- Description
- Balmenach's 2000 distillation matured nine years before Duncan Taylor's non-chill-filtered, naturally coloured NC2 bottling in 2010, preserving the spirit's full character. The young Speyside reveals earthy grain, subtle honey, and a grainy texture typical of unfiltered single malts.
