The Balvenie Distillerie

The whisky distillery based in Dufftown, Banffshire, Scotland has been producing single malt Scotch whisky since 1892. The Balvenie was founded by none other than William J. Grant, who also founded Glenfiddich, and is located not far from it. In order to save costs, The Balvenie initially used used stills from the Lagavulin and Glen Albyn distilleries; today the distillery has a total of nine stills. David Stewart, who produced for both Glenfiddich and The Balvenie, was responsible for this.

The Creation of a Classic Single Malt – the original cask finish

With the words 'Probably the finest Highland malt whisky', David C. Stewart MBE once presented the first The Balvenie Classic Single Malt. For the first time, a single malt that had initially been stored in traditional oak casks was filled into Orloroso sherry casks for a finish. Stewart was thus pioneering work in finishing in a wide variety of wooden casks.

The taste

Firstly, you notice notes of vanilla and a variety of spices on the nose. These are supported by earthy, malty undertones. On the palate, the aromas are complemented by oat syrup, toffee and other spice notes. Oak wood and certain fruity notes, influenced by storage in sherry casks, are also recognizable. The finish is long-lasting and characterized by oak wood notes.

The Balvenie 12 Year Old The Sweet Toast of American Oak Single Malt Scotch Whisky 0.7L 43% Balvenie Distillery The Balvenie distillery is also a whisky distillery based in Dufftown, Scotland. It was founded at the end of the 19th century by William J. Grant, who, if you know a little about the world of whisky, is also known as the founder of Glenfiddich and near whom the Balvenie distillery is also located. At first, whisky was produced specifically for the company's own blending. In 1973, single malt was bottled as standard for the first time. Peated whisky has been produced again since 2002. The Balvenie Stories The whisky range, which has been around since 2019 and is also strictly limited, has already included a 14YO 'The Weak of Peat' and a 26YO 'A Day of Dark Barley'. Now there is a third representative of the range and it is a fairly young single malt Scotch whisky. Each individual whisky in the limited edition is intended to represent the development of the renowned distillery. The 12 YO 'The Sweet Toast of American Oak' is a single malt that combines complex aromas with fruity-sweet notes. The beautiful design of the bottle packaging provides some information about this. For example, it can be found out that the maturation took place first in ex-bourbon barrels and the whisky was then transferred to toasted American oak barrels for further maturation.
