The Balvenie Distillery is built on stories. They’re our lifeblood. In an industry where everything is codified, we don’t write much down. Instead, we pass on what we know, from one person to the next, story by story...This is the story of David C. Stewart creating the world’s original cask-finished Single Malt Scotch whisky. A sweet and syrupy expression of The Balvenie with a touch of vanilla oak and ginger spiciness, finished in sherry casks. Aromatic and lively, aromas of vanilla and spice evocative of dried clove and chai are layered on a base of earthly, malty undertones reminiscent of Balvenie’s own Barley loft. A perfect complement of light oatmeal syrupiness and brittle toffee are followed by delicate hints of spice and a rich drying sensation from European Oak with a lingering, lasting dry oak finish.
