Berry Bros & Rudd·The Auld & The BoldBlair Athol

Berry Bros & Rudd Blair Athol 14-year-old is a single malt Scotch whisky from the Highland distillery of Blair Athol, bottled by the long-established independent bottler Berry Bros & Rudd. At 14 years old and 56.9% ABV, it is likely to offer a more concentrated and robust style than many standard releases.

Blair Athol is broadly known for a rich, malty character, and independent bottlings can show a distillery’s style in a more individual way than regular core expressions. The high strength means it may suit slow sipping, and a little water can help open up the aromas and texture for newer drinkers.
