Connoisseurs Choice 1989
from Balblair Distillery (cask strength)
Created in 1968 by whisky visionary, George Urquhart, over the years this range has featured single malts from almost 100 Scottish distilleries. Comprising more than 2,000 individual bottlings, each Connoisseurs Choice tells its life story through its label: cask type, bottling date, strength, vintage and tasting note.
Nose
GREEN APPLE and LIME ZEST lead to DESICCATED COCONUT. BRAZIL NUT notes develop with MANGO and MALTED BISCUIT.
Taste
PEACHES and POACHED PEARS combine with soft BLACK PEPPER. HONEYCOMB comes to the fore alongside mature OAK and ORANGE PEEL.
Finish
A full finish with lingering MARZIPAN, DRIED TOBACCO and SPICE.
