Description
The Balvenie 19 Year Old Week of Peat represents a significant chapter in the acclaimed The Balvenie Stories series, chronicling the ingenuity of former distillery manager Ian Millar. Inspired by a transformative visit to Islay, Millar introduced a peated malt distillation period for just seven days each year. This premium whisky South Africa connoisseurs frequently seek is bottled without chill filtration for a richer, more authentic texture.
- Nose: An alluring blend of soft floral honey and bright citrus notes, elegantly wrapped in a veil of delicate, earthy wood smoke and creamy vanilla.
- Palate: Exceptionally velvety and oily on the tongue, revealing layers of butterscotch and orange zest followed by a sophisticated, lingering peat influence that remains remarkably approachable.
- Finish: A long-lasting and warming conclusion marked by toasted oak, gentle spices, and a final, distinct hint of cinnamon and ginger.
To fully experience its intricate complexity, this dram is best served neat in a Glencairn glass or with a singular drop of spring water to unlock the deeper essential oils. As a limited release from The Balvenie Stories, it is keenly followed by collectors and a fine choice for lovers of gently peated Speyside malt.
