Hunter Laing First Editions Authors' Series Blair Athol 31 Year Old 1989 Sherry Hogshead 45.6% ABV

Blair Athol 31 Year Old 1989 is a single cask Highland single malt Scotch whisky from Hunter Laing's The First Editions Authors' Series. Distilled at Blair Athol in May 1989 and matured in sherry hogshead #18442, it was bottled in March 2021 at 31 years old; the cask gave just 236 bottles. It is bottled at 45.6% ABV without added colour or chill filtration, in a 700ml wax-sealed decanter-style bottle presented in a hinged gift box. Each release in the series honours a literary figure, and this one, No. 50, carries a portrait of the Austrian author and dramatist Arthur Schnitzler on the label. Official Blair Athol releases at this age are scarce, making this an unusual find for collectors.

Serve: Neat, with a drop of water if desired.
