Tasting Notes

An exquisite masterpiece crafted by the legendary David Stewart MBE, The Creation Of A Classic from Balvenie's Stories range pays homage to his pioneering work with cask finishing. This exceptional whisky is first matured in ex-bourbon casks, imparting a sweet and inviting aroma of vanilla, ginger, and caramel. As you take a sip, your palate is greeted with a delightful medley of gingerbread, oatmeal, toffee, and stone fruit, perfectly balanced with the warmth of spicy clove and cinnamon. The finish lingers with a satisfying spiciness and a hint of wood tannin, leaving a lasting impression. Bottled at 43% ABV, this whisky seamlessly combines the classic smooth and fruity Balvenie profile with the influence of oloroso sherry casks, resulting in a harmonious and unforgettable dram that whisky enthusiasts will undoubtedly cherish.
