Side Burn Blended Malt Scotch Whisky
1998 Vintage, 35 Years Old
Refill Casks
51% ABV
Artwork by: Whisky Hobo
Nose: Opens with a very enticing round fruitiness met with a good deal of minerality. The refill wood has allowed the spirit to develop a great depth without overpowering the raw materials, rather transforming them into a beautiful mix of orchard fruit salad, honey and salt
Palate: The medley of orchard fruits continue on the palate, followed by camphor, white pepper and some honeysuckle
Finish: Great length, as you would expect from the age, with lots of wax, and a little bit of white pepper, providing that signature Bal*enie bittersweetness to give a great deal of balance
Non-Chill filtered and natural colour. This spirit may haze at low temperatures and under dilution.
