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

A Maltiply member's tasting notes and whisky impression.

87 / 100

The oak influence seems to fit the sweet side well: vanilla and butterscotch sit alongside tropical fruit, while the palate is described as spicy and full-bodied. That balance works for me.
