Whisky Focus - Balblair 2000 Balblair Releases Millennium Malt

Balblair Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky has unveiled its latest vintage expression – the Balblair 2000 which is the first of Balblair's vintage selection from this century.

Distilled in the Millennium year, this unique spirit is the latest handpicked choice of Distillery Manager John MacDonald and is another example of the distillery’s unique approach to only ever releasing premium vintages which have matured to perfection.

Only limited quantities of this vintage will be made available to specialist whisky outlets throughout the UK this September and will be rolled out internationally to key focus markets including France, Spain and the travel retail channel.

Says Distillery Manager John MacDonald: "We are delighted to be introducing this new addition to our vintage range. We have spent a great deal of time and care in selecting this perfect malt and all the hard work, dedication and devotion has paid off. We are confident that whisky enthusiasts worldwide will really enjoy this newest member of the Balblair family."

Balblair Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky is ‘timed to perfection’ in every sense. At Balblair's distillery, on the shores of the Dornoch Firth in Edderton, Tain, super-premium vintage expressions are specially selected after a complex tasting and nosing process. Only the finest whiskies – those that have reached the peak of their perfection – are chosen and named by the year that they were distilled and layed down in cask.

Following a highly successful US launch this May, Balblair has become established as ‘the’ quality choice for discerning malt whisky drinkers worldwide. Its contemporary design, sets it apart, and the celebrated taste reflects the time honoured and un-rushed methods of production that have remained virtually unchanged over the years

Balblair 2000 is currently available at The Whisky Exchange for £30.75
