Description

A 25 year old Edradour, a distillery bottling, cask Batch 1, at 54.6%, 1330 bottles in all. Edradour is a rich, oily Highland single malt made in the old farm buildings above Pitlochry. For years its sign read Scotland's smallest distillery; it now calls itself Scotland's little gem.

The spirit was distilled slowly in the old farm stillhouse on Ben Vrackie water, building the creamy Edradour style. Finished in an Oloroso cask, the wood building over the oily, full bodied spirit. Through the evaporative decades the spirit concentrates, esters folding into dried fruit and beeswax. Refill oak lets the rich, oily Edradour character lead the way. The distillery sits in a pocket glen at Balnauld, in the hills above Pitlochry in Perthshire. It is one of the smallest traditional distilleries in Scotland, long run by just two or three hands.

At cask strength 54.6% it is big and oily. A rich, oily orchard fruit and almond, with dried fruit, fig and walnut from the cask. The texture is oily and creamy, the fruit lifted by vanilla. It finishes long, rich and oily. This is Edradour's full bodied, sherried Highland style.
