This Balvenie has a delicate fruity expression, which is partly due to heather from the Balvenie estate.

Nose:
Vibrant notes of geranium and fig oil complemented by fresh herbal notes.

Flavour:
Aromas of cloves, honey and caramelized dates are overlaid with spices & citrus fruits. The sweetness of the whiskey is based on an underlying, oaky dryness.

Finishes:
oaky & dried flowers. Generally long lasting.

]]> The name Balvenie is infered by the castle Balvenie which is located close by and means as much as ‘city of luck’. It is one of many distilleries of the village Dufftown, the secret ‘capital of whisky’ in the Speyside and is also named as ‘little sister’ of Glenfiddich. The distillery was built in 1892 nearly by one’s own hands by William Grant & Sons out of the ruins of the guesthouse. Today the distillery owns more than eight stills and since 1990 there is another distillery on the compound named Kininvie. The water that is used has its origin in the spring Robbie Dubh, the same spring Glenfiddich uses its water from.
