Tasting Notes

Colour

Golden amber with honeyed warmth and a subtle coppery edge, a luminous, inviting glow that hints at its sherry-influenced maturation.

Nose

A layered, inviting nose of ripe fruit and honey, with hints of sweet sherry and vanilla lingering beneath the surface.

Palate

Smooth, sweet and warming on the palate, with a touch of spice. Honeyed fruit sits beneath a delicate sherry influence, carried by two-wood maturation. The richness unfolds gently, finishing long and satisfying with a comforting, lingering warmth.

Finish

Long and satisfying, the finish unfolds with warm spice and honeyed sweetness, carried by sherry oak notes that linger with vanilla and a polished, oak-driven warmth.

(bal-VENN-ee) Founded in 1889 by William Grant, Balvenie is located next to the giant Glenfiddich distillery on the outskirts of Dufftown in Speyside. The distillery employs traditional whisky making methods, being one of the few to retain its original floor maltings and on site cooperage. The Balvenie single malt is typically rich, luxuriously smooth, and has a distinctive honeyed character.
