Tasting Notes
Nose: Fragrant with a well-rounded body, offering notes of oak, crisp spices, dried fruits, and pastries. Subtle berry fruits, aniseed, cedar hints, and a touch of spice and citrus complete the profile.
Palate: Supple and beautifully balanced, showcasing toffee, faint wisps of smoke, chocolate, hints of grass, and a pronounced malt character.
Finish: Long and floral with oaky undertones, carried by a refined plume of Highland-style smoke. Dried fruits, spices, and honey linger gracefully.
Overall: Blue Label remains an enduring legend among premium blends, exemplifying elegance and complexity.
