Balvenie 12 Years Home Malted - 47,5%
The Balvenie 12 Years Home Malted is a tribute to the oldest bottling the distillery has ever released, created by Malt Master Kelsey McKechnie. The whisky first matured in American oak and was then finished in former European oak sherry casks. The barley used comes entirely from the distillery's own maltings, one of the few in Scotland that still malts its own barley. The result is a harmonious, elegant interpretation of the classic Balvenie style, with warm biscuit aromas and honey-sweet toffee on the nose, candied ginger and raisins on the palate and a full-bodied, velvety-smooth finish.

Product information "Balvenie 12 Years Home Malted - 47,5%"
The Balvenie 12 Year Old Home Malted is a tribute to the distillery’s oldest-ever released bottling, created by Malt Master Kelsey McKechnie. The whisky was initially matured in American oak and subsequently finished in ex-sherry European oak casks. The barley used comes entirely from the distillery’s own maltings—one of the few in Scotland that still malts its own grain. The result is a harmonious, elegant interpretation of the classic Balvenie style, featuring warm biscuit aromas and honeyed toffee on the nose, candied ginger and raisins on the palate, and a full-bodied, velvety-smooth finish.

The Balvenie 14 Year Old Week of Peat contains whisky that is only produced for one week a year. When the distillery is closed for cleaning and maintenance, heavily peated barley malt is distilled beforehand. The first and second run is stored in additional tanks and reused the following year, so each vintage is linked together. The peat content in the malt is around 30 ppm.

The Balvenie 25 years is a real masterpiece. Matured in American and European oak barrels, the Balvenie convinces with a combination of sweet and creamy notes.
