About Balblair 1975 Single Malt Scotch Whisky

Balblair Single Malt Scotch Whisky is made from plump, ripe Scottish barley, which is malted and fermented using water from the same source the Ross Family began using nearly 225 years ago. Following fermentation, the grains are twice distilled through the Balblair's copper-pot stills. After distillation, Balblair's stillmen remove the heads and tails of the distillate and preserve only the "hearts"for maturation (the hearts comprise less than 20% of the entire distillate).

Unlike other Scottish distilleries that bottle their whiskies with an age statement, Balblair Distillery bottles its whisky with a vintage statement. This method of bottling, which emphasizes maturity rather than age, allows Balblair's Distillery Manager — John MacDonald — to bottle the whisky when it has reached its peak flavor profile. "There's something quite special about a perfectly matured, Highland single malt whisky," says MacDonald. "About having the essence of a vintage year, captured in a bottle. About tasting it. About feeling it."

Balblair 1975 Single Malt Scotch Whisky was distilled in 1975 and launched in February 2012. The whisky has a rich golden color, along with an aroma of citrus fruit, soft vanilla and toffee. The aroma gives way to notes of fresh fruit, honey, oak and cloves on the palate, and leads to a long, layered finish. Balblair 1975 Single Malt Scotch Whisky earned the Gold Medal at the International Wine and Spirits Competition in 2013.

About Balblair

Balblair, founded in 1790 by John Ross, is one of the oldest distilleries in Scotland. The distillery was operated by the Ross family until the late 19th century, when James Ross gave up the tenancy of Balblair to Alexander Cowan, a wine merchant from Inverness. In 1911, Balblair ceased its distilling operations, and in 1932 the last whisky from the era was bottled. In 1948, Balblair resumed production under the stewardship of Robert James "Bertie" Cumming, a solicitor from Banff, who purchased the distillery for £48,000 a year later. In 1970, he sold the company to Hiram Walker, and throughout the 1980s extensive investments were made in the development of the distillery’s facilities. The distillery, located in the Highland village of Edderton, was acquired by Inver House Distillers in 1996.

About Scotch

Scotch is the most popular whisky in the world and is considered the king of them all! There are five whisky regions in Scotland (six if you count the not officially recognized Islands), and each of them produces spirits with unique properties and distinct tasting notes. (The type of grain used determents the type of the scotch.)


Malt whisky is made of malted barley, and grain whisky uses other grains like corn or wheat. Most of the time, a whisky is blended from different distilleries hence the name blended scotch, but if a malt whisky is produced in a single distillery, we get something extraordinary called a single malt.
