The Single Malts of Scotland Blair Athol 13 Years Old Single Cask 2010

Nose: A loaf of brown soda bread, quite darkened on the crust, is spread thickly with tart rhubarb jam. Musky aromas of thyme and saffron combine with milk-chocolate-covered digestive biscuits. A shadow of soft pear drifts beneath.
Palate: The tart quality evident on the nose emerges on the palate as fizzy jellies and under-ripe strawberries. Pineapple-and-lemon ice lollies mingle with fruit salad chewy sweets. Finally, nuttiness reappears in the form of an apple-and-cinnamon oat bar.
Finish: Tangy pomelos and a smattering of pine nuts last on, with the hint of a sweet red pepper and a few vegetal green tea leaves following behind.
This single malt was distilled at Blair Athol distillery in 2006 and aged for more than 14 years in a single hogshead, yielding a total of 326 bottles. This is a whisky suited to the fledgling days of autumn.
