Description from the seller
The Balblair 5-year-old is a vintage Pure Malt Scotch Whisky expression that was primarily bottled in the 1970s and 1980s and is now a collector's item. It is known for its light, creamy, and fruity profile, often noted for being a good quality young whisky for its time.
Tasting notes for these historical whiskies come from expert reviews of well-preserved bottles:
Nose: Very fruity with notes of grapefruit and lemon, white flowers like chamomile, and hints of pear and pineapple. There are also notes of sweet malt, toffee, and a waxy/honeyed quality.
Palate: Light to medium-bodied, featuring vanilla, cream, apple, and toffee flavors. Reviewers note a smooth, oily texture with hints of new wood, subtle smoke, and citrus fruits.
Finish: Generally described as medium or short, with notes of butter, chocolate, dried coconut, honey, and a slightly bitter tip of grapefruit.
