Absolut World is a strong statement and expression of a world without borders. A world united in peace, love and friendship.
For this limited edition bottle design we worked with Swedish Illustrator Kari Modén, best known for her decorative, colorful and joyous style. The design celebrates global unity and the values that unite people around the world: love, peace and togetherness.
To back the launch we created a new page on Absolut.com where travellers could upload a selfie and share tips on their favourite local hangouts. The data was then transformed into a mosaic of faces, names and locations and shared online creating a digital space that added to the celebration of togetherness and provided a directory of hip hangouts in towns and cities across the world.

Allt-a-Bhainne 23yo 1996
Allt-A-Bhainne single malt, distilled in 1996 and matured for 23 years, before being independently bottled by Duncan Taylor in 2020. The whisky spent those years in an octave cask that previously held sherry, and due to te cask’s smaller size that sherry influence is all the more present in the final product. Released as part of The Octave series, with a total of 70 bottles.

An interesting bourbon with a unique twist – after the initial maturation it takes a leaf out of Scotch Whisky’s book and spends between 3 and 6 months finishing in port barrels. The more experimentation the better, we reckon, especially when it turns out something like this – marrying the sweet caramel and grain of bourbon with the rich sticky wine flavours of a port cask.

Matured for a decade under the Caribbean sun, Bacardi Diez Gran Reserva is a rich, fruity rum with notes of peaches, plums, overripe banana, pear and caramelised vanilla.
A rather rare sight on these shores, Bacardi Reserva Limitada rum was originally only available from the distillery’s gift shop! It’s made with a blend of well-aged Puerto Rican rums, resulting in a splendidly rich, complex flavour profile. Big notes of fruit, vibrant vanilla and spice, complimented by oodles of oak-y elements…
Baker’s Bourbon is a small batch, Kentucky straight bourbon whiskey distilled and selected in the traditions of Baker Beam, grandnephew of the legendary Jim Beam. Today, Baker’s is still made using this very technique and is aged only in the most select rackhouses for a robust bourbon flavor with a silky, smooth finish. Carefully matured for exceptional quality, Baker’s Bourbon is distilled at a lower proof, then barreled and aged in small batches to allow the bourbon to extract more toasted nut, fruit, and vanilla flavor from the barrel wood. With an aroma of fruit, vanilla, and caramel and a finish that’s sweet, smooth, and medium-long, enjoy Baker’s neat, on the rocks, or in a Manhattan, an old fashioned, or in other bourbon-based cocktails.

“Ballantine’s 21 Year Old American Oak is the ultimate expression of American Oak cask influence. We use only rare and exquisite whiskies and nose each cask to ensure a balance between wood and whisky that results in a distinguished blend” said Ballantine’s Master Blender Sandy Hyslop.
An updated botting of this classic blended Scotch whisky, thoroughly indulgent and fabulously delicious. A high proportion of the whiskies in the recipe have been matured in European oak casks, giving a nutty, dried fruit influence. Ballantine’s is renowned for smoothness, and this expression is an impeccable example.
The 30 year old is a superb blend from Ballantines. It won a Gold at the International Spirits Challenge and Jim Murray gave it 92 points.

Released in 2013,The Balvenie Single Barrel First Fill is a 12 year old single malt whisky, aged in a first fill, ex-bourbon cask. Almost all Scotch whisky is matured in casks previously used by Bourbon distillers. When brought to Scotland and used for the very first time they are known as ‘First Fill’.
Our Malt Master samples the aged whisky, cask by cask and selects only those characterised by sweetness and subtle vanilla oak to be bottled as The Balvenie Single Barrel First Fill.
A series of “limited editions” – Each bottle is one of no more than 300 drawn from a single cask and each is hand-numbered and carries the number of the cask in which it matured.
A creamy, sweet single malt, The Sweet Toast of American Oak is the first whisky in the Balvenie Stories collection. Finished in heavily-toasted virgin American oak casks from Kentucky, it is even fruitier than normal. Sweet, malty aromas of fudge, citrus and oaky vanilla mingle with spicy ginger and warm cinnamon on the nose. The palate initially offers notes of candied orange peel, vanilla toffee and butterscotch, developing slowly into flavours of melted brown sugar, blossom honey and rich oak spice.
The Balvenie Stories collection is designed to bring to life the tales of ‘character, endeavour and craft’ of those at Balvenie through the generations.
Since 2002, the Balvenie distillers have dedicated one week a year to distilling whisky with 100% peated barley, resulting in the Peat Week bottlings! This is the second release in the series – a 14 year old single malt distilled in 2003, showing off hearty helping of rich smoke.
This 14-year-old heavily-peated single malt is the second whisky in the Balvenie Stories collection – a sweet and smoky whisky that balances earthy peat smoke with the distillery’s characteristic citrus edge. Gentle peat smoke, delicate flowers and sweet butterscotch fill the nose, while the palate initially offers notes of sharp citrus, blossom honey, creamy vanilla and rich, earthy peat.
The Balvenie Stories collection is designed to bring to life the tales of ‘character, endeavour and craft’ of those at Balvenie through the generations. The Week of Peat is inspired by the tradition, started in 2002, of distilling peated malt for only one week every year.
The Balvenie Madeira Cask is a lively and summery single malt finished in casks previously which previously held Madeira wine.
In historic times, ships set sail filled with casks of Madeira wine around the New World. Throughout their journey, casks were exposed to the heat of the sun, naturally sweetening the wine it held.
Malt Master David C. Stewart has enjoyed times exploring the Madeira region and wines they produce, inspiring his experimentation of the cask type for finishing.
This is not the first time David has used Madeira casks – previous expressions have been of older ages. This release has a lighter, livelier character.

This Balvenie single malt was matured in a combination of heavily-peated whisky casks and new American oak barrels. It carries all the hallmark flavours that we’ve come to expect from this distillery, including honeycomb and nuts, accompanied by charred cinnamon, Nutella over warm toast and a delicious puff of smoke.

The Balvenie Stories Week of Peat 17 Year Old (49.4% ABV) results from a patient and careful monitoring process to reach a perfect balance of peat and signature Balvenie flavour notes – unmistakable honey, citrus and notes of peak smoke. This is a limited-edition single malt Scotch whisky from The Balvenie Distillery, available in a 70cl bottle ready for gifting.
The Week Of Peat story begins with distillery manager Ian Millar’s eagle eye spotting a weeks gap in the distillery schedule. Eager to experiment with The Balvenie profile using what he had learnt from a recent trip to Islay, he ordered a batch of Speyside peat for the kiln and built a peat burner on the side “for, well, extra peatiness”. The whisky produced is rich in honey, vanilla and citrus notes with an extra layer of delicate smoke.
The Balvenie Distillery is built on age-old traditions and stories which are passed on from one generation of craftsmen to the next. The Balvenie Stories are a range of exclusive single malt whiskies, each representing tales of character, endeavour and craft.
