Lately I discovered two delicious aged Single Malt Scotch Whiskys, which I want to tell you more about.
First the Balblair 90 2nd release which aged for 21 years in bourbon casks and for the last 2 years in Oloroso sherry casks. Released to replace the award-winning 1989 Vintage, this incredible dram is sure to become a firm favourite amongst Balblair fans and whisky connoisseurs.

Second the anCnoc 18y has matured in Spanish oak ex-sherry casks and American oak ex-bourbon barrels and has been bottled in its most natural form, neither chill-filtered nor coloured. As a result this dram may develop a light haze with the addition of water or if kept at a cold temperature. This haze is a natural characteristic of whisky that is non chill-filtered.
