Description

Balvenie 1991 Rose 16 Year Old First Release 70cl 53.1% is a rare and distinctive Speyside single malt Scotch whisky produced at the renowned Balvenie Distillery in Dufftown, Scotland. Distilled in 1991 and matured for 16 years, this special release reflects Balvenie’s traditional craftsmanship and dedication to producing characterful single malts.

The result is a complex and expressive single malt with flavours of honey, dried fruits, vanilla, caramel, and warming spice.
