After more than a decade of patient maturation, this inaugural small-batch release offers an exceptional opportunity to experience Ballindalloch Single Malt at its very beginning.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFrom barley to bottle, every step of production takes place on the historic Ballindalloch Estate, stewarded by the Macpherson-Grant family since 1457. Estate-grown Laureate Spring barley is cultivated, distilled, matured, and hand-bottled on site, delivering total provenance, sustainability, and character in every drop. With an annual production 100 times smaller than the average Speyside distillery, Ballindalloch represents a genuine rarity for collectors and connoisseurs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e50% ALC\/VOL • 100 PROOF\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTHE DISTILLERY \u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe history of distilling on the Ballindalloch Estate dates back to the early 1820s when a distillery was built at Delnashaugh, above the junction of the rivers Avon and Spey near where the Delnashaugh Hotel stands today.\u003cbr\u003eIt was under the stewardship of Sir George Macpherson-Grant, the 3rd Baronet, that distilling on the Estate was firmly established. As co-founder of Cragganmore distillery with John Smith in 1869, Sir George was clearly a man for whom distilleries held a special place in his heart.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSir George also enjoyed a close association with Robert Hay, who built Glenfarclas distillery on the North side of the Estate. His final direct involvement with a new distillery was the building of Speyside Distillery in Kingussie in 1896.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt can very much be said that the building of Ballindalloch Distillery is a return to the industry for the Macpherson-Grant family.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTASTING NOTES\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f585dda elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"f585dda\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"elementor-widget-container\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eColor: Bright gold\u003cbr\u003eNose: Rich vanilla, fresh herbs, and distinct apple notes\u003cbr\u003ePalate: Creamy vanilla and apple, layered with hints of mint and milk chocolate\u003cbr\u003eFinish: Long, refined, and elegant\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSHIPPING \u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e*SHIPPING NOTICE- If possible, please use a business address for shipping.
