Balvenie Distillery
The Balvenie Distillery in Speyside was established in 1892 and has been currently owned by the same family company for five generations.
The Balvenie Single Barrel Sherry Cask has been matured only in European Oak butts that have previously been used to mature Oloroso Sherry.
Released at 47.8% and Non Chill Filtered.
This single malt has been matured exclusively in a European Oak Sherry Butt for at least 15 years.
David Stewart the Malt Master carefully samples the aged whisky cask by cask to ensure each barrel meets the requirement for Balvenie's Single Barrel Sherry Cask.
Single cask number 10163 and bottle number 279 from no more than 650 bottles from the single barrel.
The Balvenie Single Barrel derives its name from a single cask of a single distillation. No two casks of the same type and filled with new make spirit from the same distillation will produce an identical single malt, so each bottling will be of a limited edition.
Tasting Notes are based on no two single barrels being exactly the same, the notes are based on the consistent character of rich with elegant oak and subtle spice. Dried fruits are overlaid with a gentle nuttiness, leading to a long and sherried finish.
