Ballechin 20 Year Old 52.8%

Ballechin 20 Year Old 52.8% is a rare and distinguished peated Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky from Edradour Distillery. Matured for 20 years and bottled at a robust  , this exceptional expression beautifully balances rich peat smoke with layers of sweet malt, ripe fruit, and well-integrated oak. The extended maturation creates remarkable depth, complexity, and elegance while preserving Ballechin's signature smoky character. The nose opens with aromas of bonfire smoke, honey, dried apricots, vanilla, dark chocolate, and toasted oak, complemented by hints of earthy herbs and orange zest. On the palate, rich flavours of smoky peat, salted caramel, raisins, roasted nuts, espresso, baking spices, and creamy malt unfold over a full-bodied, velvety texture. The finish is long, warming, and intensely satisfying, leaving lingering notes of charred oak, sweet smoke, dried fruit, cocoa, and gentle spice. Ballechin 20 Year Old 52.8% is an exceptional choice for collectors and peated whisky enthusiasts seeking a mature Highland single malt with outstanding complexity.
