A true work of artistry from one of the most revered whisky houses in history, experience the distinction of the 40 Year Old Balvenie. From their bucolic Speyside distillery, The Balvenie’s esteemed Malt Master, David Stewart MBE, has identified and married small samples of the finest aged barrels to create a uniquely exceptional single malt. Four decades of maturation in traditional oak casks and European oak sherry butts imbues this blend with an unparalleled degree of refinement. The characteristic depth and complexity of a Balvenie single malt is here elevated to a stark demonstration of excellence, delivering exquisite velvet smoothness and a remarkable quality of flavour. The 40 Year Old expression releases perfumes of honeysuckle and vanilla before meeting the palate with rich chords of crystallised ginger, stewed red fruits, and warm leather. Superbly balanced and beautifully nuanced, this whisky commands admiration. Perfect Serve – Pour a neat dram and leave the whisky to breathe for several minutes to allow its character to fully bloom. Take slow, considerate sips and relish the excellence of this remarkable bottle.
