Balvenie 16 Year Old Triple Cask 70cl, 40%

Description

Balvenie 16 Year Old Triple Cask 70cl 40% is a refined Speyside single malt Scotch whisky produced at the renowned Balvenie Distillery in Dufftown, Scotland. This expression forms part of Balvenie’s Triple Cask series, which highlights the distillery’s expertise in combining whisky matured in different cask types to create a balanced and complex flavour profile.

The whisky is matured in a combination of traditional American oak ex-bourbon casks, first-fill sherry casks, and refill sherry casks. These casks are carefully married together to bring harmony between sweetness, fruit richness, and gentle oak spice.

After 16 years of maturation, the whisky develops Balvenie’s signature honeyed character supported by layers of dried fruits, vanilla, and soft spice. Bottled at 40% ABV, it offers a smooth and approachable style while maintaining depth and elegance.

The result is a beautifully balanced single malt with flavours of honey, orchard fruits, caramel, vanilla, and delicate oak spice.
