Description
A standout release, Balvenie Creation of a Classic pays homage to the visionary work of legendary Malt Master David C. Stewart MBE. This expression celebrates ‘The Classic’, the early Balvenie bottling with which Stewart pioneered secondary cask maturation, a technique that went on to shape the wider whisky world. To achieve its signature depth, the liquid is first matured in American oak ex-bourbon barrels before being transferred to sherry casks for a distinctive finish. This 750ml bottling, presented at 43% ABV, offers an approachable yet complex experience that highlights the distillery’s commitment to the five rare crafts of whisky making.
- Nose: An inviting bouquet of lively vanilla and aromatic ginger, underscored by notes of malted barley and rich toffee.
- Palate: Syrupy oatmeal and gingerbread flavours harmonise with stone fruits, cloves, and a hint of toasted oak.
- Finish: A lingering, creamy conclusion featuring delicate vanilla sweetness and a gentle touch of dry oak tannin.
