Ballindalloch 2017 Virgin Oak – Cask 69

A Speyside Single Cask Stunner from One of Scotland’s Youngest Estates

From the heart of Speyside, Ballindalloch Distillery brings you something rare, raw, and ravishing, Cask 69, a single cask release from 2017, matured in Virgin American Oak. Unfiltered and unadulterated, this dram screams individuality, with full-bodied richness and oak-forward complexity.

Expect a spicy sweetness from the fresh oak, layers of vanilla, charred coconut, cinnamon bark, and creamy butterscotch all wrapped around a core of elegant Speyside fruit. The virgin cask brings punch and texture, creating a whisky that’s both bold and beautifully balanced for its age.

This is single malt for the curious, the collectors, and those who appreciate the magic of a young whisky done right.
