    Balvenie 21 Years Old

    Port Wood Finish
    Lot #0270633
    FINISH DATE
    29 February 2016

    A refined and elegant expression from The Balvenie Distillery, the 21 Year Old PortWood is the result of decades of craftsmanship and masterful maturation. Initially aged in traditional oak casks for over two decades, this whisky is then finished in Port pipes—casks that previously held fine Portuguese Port wine. The Port cask finishing lends a beautifully layered complexity, enhancing Balvenie’s signature honeyed richness with deep notes of ripe fruit, spice, and gentle oak. The result is a soft, sophisticated single malt that balances sweetness and depth with remarkable finesse.

    Balvenie

    One of the Dufftown distilleries, or the one next door to Glenfiddich. Balvenie has been forever in the ownership of William Grant & Sons. The distillery was established in 1892 and takes its name from a nearby castle, which was the original name for the town. Compared to Glenfiddich and Kininvie, Balvenie focuses more on the craft aspect of distillery with its branding. A small percentage of its malt is produced on a traditional malting floor and it retains a cooperage. In relative terms, the distillery has only just opened its doors for tours as it continues to grow in popularity. Assisted by 9 distinctive stills and inventive cask maturation, finding favour with many whisky drinkers. So much so, that Ailsa Bay modelled its stills on Balvenie’s, aiming to take up some demand for blends and let the distillery concentrate on expanding the Balvenie range.
