DESCRIPTION

Edradour, die legendäre Lieblings-Brennerei vieler Whisky-Fans, füllt unter der Marke Ballechin ihre torfigsten Single Malts ab. Gebrannt aus Malz mit mindestens 50 ppm Rauchanteil, reifen die rauchigen Highland-Whiskys für ihr vielfältiges Geschmacksprofil in ganz unterschiedlichen Fassarten. Dieser fassstarkes Ballechin 15 y. o. Single Cask verbrachte seine Reife in einem Port Cask – und ist damit eine der in der Whiskywelt eher seltenen reinen Portweinfass-Abfüllungen.

Mit dem portugiesischen Dessertwein vorbelegte Fässer bieten eine große Bandbreite an Geschmacksnuancen. Allen gemein: vollmundige Fruchtnoten – sogar noch intensiver als Genießer es von Sherryfässern kennen. So geht der leicht rotgoldene Ballechin eine verführerische Liaison von kräftigem Rauch und süßen Trockenfrüchten ein, untermalt von Marzipan sowie Holz- und Heunoten.

TASTING NOTES

Nose	Starker Rauch, dann süße Portweinaromen und Trockenfrüchte, begleitet von Marzipan, frisch geschlagenem Holz und etwas weißem Pfeffer.
Palate	Angenehmer Lagerfeuerrauch, kalte Asche und Jod, gefolgt von Rosinen, Datteln und malziger Süße.
Finish	Weintrauben und Feigen - langsam ausklingend mit Noten von Heu, Datteln und etwas Eiche.
