Description
Another addition to the exclusive Balvenie Stories range which showcases the rich history of the distillery. This unusual single malt was the first batch distilled with unpeated barley following the annual 'peat week' when smoky whisky is made so it has picked up a subtle smoky flavour. It was then aged for 14 years in first-fill bourbon casks and bottled at 47% to produce a unique Balvenie.

About the Distillery:
The legendary William Grant first founded the Balvenie Distillery.
In 1886 he was able to open Glenfiddich, a brand that thrives to this day. He was also one of the first to pioneer single malts over blends. Glenfiddich was in high demand and Grant decided it was time to open a new distillery.
The Balvenie came to life in 1892 and is based in the Speyside region, on the same site as Glenfiddich and Grant’s other distillery, Kininvie.
