Ballechin 18 Year Old Cask Strength (Batch #2) is a heavily peated Highland single malt distilled at Pitlochry’s historic Edradour Distillery. Distilled in 2006 and bottled in late 2024 after 18 years of maturation, this expression showcases Edradour’s robust, farmyard peat smoke profile combined with a rich cask maturation in a combination of ex-bourbon and sherry casks. Presented at a formidable natural cask strength of 57.8% ABV without chill filtration or artificial coloring, it offers a deep harmony of smoldering campfire smoke, dark dried fruit sweetness, toasted oak, and rich baking spices.
Food Pairing: Pairs exceptionally well with heavily smoked beef brisket, sharp blue cheese, dark chocolate tarts with sea salt, glazed venison chops, or sticky date pudding.
Tasting Notes: A powerful and mature heavily peated Highland single malt delivering dense wood smoke, stewed dark fruit, dark chocolate, and rich oak spice.
Nose: Dense peat smoke, leather, dark fruits, toasted vanilla bean, warm cinnamon, and smoldering ember embers.
Palate: Viscous and full-bodied with notes of earthy peat, smoked malt, dark raisins, bittersweet chocolate, and seasoned oak woodiness.
Finish: Long, warm, and deeply smoky with enduring echoes of peat, dry oak spice, dark cocoa, and lingering sweet malt.
Serve: Enjoy neat in a Glencairn glass or with a few drops of water to open up its complex smoke and rich cask layers.
