Balvenie 14YO Carribbean Cask

Balvenie lies in the Convals in Dufftown. The distillery was built by William Grant just below Glenfiddich in 1892, sharing its water source, the Robbie Dhu springs, with its illustrious neighbor. Despite also having the same distiller, Balvenie is hugely different in character. It is one of the few Scotch distilleries to boast in-house floor maltings, utilising locally hand-cut peat. Over the last few years, Balvenie has become the ninth bestselling single malt and demand is growing. 

Matured in traditional oak whisky casks for 14 years, and then ‘finished’ in casks that previously held Caribbean rum. 

Rich, sweet and creamy toffee on the nose combines with fresh fruit nose. On the palate, rounded with vanilla and sweet oak notes, with a fruity character that develops with time. The finish is soft and lingering.
