Product Description

The Balvenie 14 Year Old Caribbean Cask is a distinctive and exceptional single malt Scotch whisky, expertly crafted by David Stewart MBE, the Master Blender at Balvenie Distillery. This unique expression begins its maturation in traditional American oak ex-bourbon casks, where it absorbs the classic Balvenie character of vanilla and smooth honey. After 14 years, the whisky is transferred to casks that previously held Caribbean rum, a finishing touch that imparts subtle tropical fruit flavours and a rich, rum-soaked sweetness.

The result is a truly remarkable single malt with a beautifully rounded profile. It carries the signature smooth, honeyed sweetness of Balvenie, but with added complexity from the rum casks, showcasing hints of toffee, fruit, and a touch of spice. The finish is warm, lingering, and soft, making it an ideal whisky to savour neat, over ice, or with a splash of water.

The Balvenie is one of the few remaining distilleries in Scotland that still practices the traditional methods of whisky production. From growing its own barley to malting it in traditional floor malting and employing coopers and a coppersmith, the distillery is a true testament to craftsmanship and dedication.
