Named after the Tomintoul Distillery's water source, the Ballantruan Spring, this single malt is distilled from heavily peated barley.

Speyside isn't known for its peaty scotches and this Old Ballantruan 10 Year is one of a handful that the region produces. Named after the Tomintoul Distillery's water source, the Ballantruan Spring, this single malt is distilled from heavily peated barley. It spends 10 years aging in ex-bourbon casks made from American white oak, before being bottled at 50% ABV without chill-filtering.

Tasting Notes

"The nose is rather gentle with soft smoke, smoldering embers and subtle earthy notes, followed by Band-aids. There're touches of heather and moss, but also some puff pastry. Plenty of earthy peat and licorice on the palate, as well as charcoal and smoked, sweet barley husks. Not your average peater, but very good."
