Nose: Raisins, peaches, apricots, chocolate, blackcurrant cordial, dried cherries, cloves, hints of coffee.

Finish: Medium. Fresh baked bread, peaches, coffee, raisins, black pepper. 

Comments: 

Cask 013. This one is finished in sherry rather than fully sherried, and it retains even more of the classic Balblair notes. It’s quite spicy, with some tartness that was drowned out in the previous whisky. Even more enjoyable.

Verdict:

I like this a lot.
