Infrequent Flyers: Blair Athol 2008

Infrequent Flyers: Blair Athol 2008 – 17 Year Old Single Malt

A Bold Highland Expression from a Hidden Gem

Part of the acclaimed Infrequent Flyers series by Alistair Walker Whisky Company, this 2008 Blair Athol is a true rarity,  a 17-year-old Highland single malt drawn from a single cask that highlights the depth and nuance of this often-overlooked distillery.

Distilled in 2008 and matured for 17 years, this expression showcases the rich, nutty and subtly spiced style Blair Athol is known for, further elevated by the unique cask it rested in. Expect warming notes of fruitcake, dark chocolate, candied orange peel and toasted oak, wrapped in a silky, full-bodied mouthfeel.

Bottled at natural cask strength, non-chill filtered and with natural colour, this is an unadulterated expression that speaks directly to whisky lovers who appreciate authenticity and rarity.

Tasting Notes

Nose: Rich fruitcake, toasted walnuts, orange zest, and hints of leather and antique wood.
Palate: Bold and textured,  layers of dark toffee, clove, Seville orange marmalade and subtle earthy spice.
Finish: Long, warming, with dried fruit sweetness and lingering oak.
