2021
Built in 1798, south of the Cairngorms is one of Scotland’s most visited distilleries – Blair Athol. The spirit from this traditional distillery, that has been in favour with master blenders for hundreds of years, is celebrated for its full-bodied character. Now, for the very first time, we give Blair Athol its debut in Murray McDavid colours. Developing sweetness from bourbon casks, this hearty Highlander was further matured for 20 months in freshly emptied Oloroso Sherry casks, gently progressing its opulent character. The rich, nutty spirit that flows from the stills of Blair Athol is a new favourite amongst our Whisky Creations Team.
