- Description
- Edradour's Ballechin peated single malt spent 11 years developing in a Bordeaux wine cask, creating an unusual marriage of peat smoke and wine-soaked complexity. The wine cask adds structure and dark fruit notes that complement rather than dominate the peat. A conversation piece for enthusiasts curious about unconventional cask finishes on peated whisky.
