Balblair Vintage 1997, American Oak ex-Bourbon Cask, 2012, 46%

A Maltiply member's tasting notes and whisky impression.

87 / 100

The fruit and vanilla sound appealing, while spice and oak keep the sweetness from seeming one-note. Full-bodied and long is a substantial character, but the balanced finish gives the description some restraint.
