Dive into Highland richness with Blair Athol 13 Year Old – 2011 Vintage, Signatory Cask Strength. Initially matured in American oak, this robust Pitlochry malt received a vibrant finishing spell in a 1st-fill Ruby Port Hogshead (Cask #6) before bottling at natural cask strength in April 2025. The luscious Port wood drapes Blair Athol’s nutty, malty core in layers of berry compôte, dark chocolate and gentle spice. Released non-chill-filtered and natural in colour, only 310 individually numbered bottles capture this limited marriage of Highland heft and Portuguese wine finesse.
