Description

A malt distillery in the Highland region of Scotland owned by the ThaiBev drinks group in south-east Asia through its Inver House Distillers division. Although historically associated with the Ballantine's blend, it has established itself in the 21st century as a key single malt brand. This is a discontinued bottling from the famous Balblair Distillery, in Edderton, Ross-shire. The distillery was founded in 1790, making it among the oldest in the region. Whiskies there are distilled and fermented extremely slowly - and the results are in the bottle for everyone to appreciate!
