Composed by a variety of rare reserves that have been aged for 21 years, on the final step it is transferred to a Port cask for further maturation. Non-Chill filtered, bottled at cask strength. Considered by many to be one of Balvenie's finest creation, this whisky has won an array of awards since its release in 1996.
Tasting notes
Sweet aromas of ripe fruit and raisins with hints of dry nuts.
Creamy and silky texture with fruit, honey and spicy notes.
Long and pleasant.
Founded in 1892 by William Grant, ever since little has changed. Thanks to a combination of natural alchemy and centuries-old craftsmanship, The Balvenie is unique among single malts.It is the only distillery that still grows its own barley and has one of the few malting floors left in Scotland. Their casks are maintained by coppersmiths in order to ensure that each barrel is in perfect condition.
