To craft The Balvenie 40 Year Old as part of the Rare Marriages series, Malt Master David Stewart has expertly blended aged malts from a selection of traditional American and European oak sherry butts, laid in Balvenie’s warehouses for at least 40 years. Winner of the gold award at the 2017 International Wine & Spirits Competition, it’s a refined marriage of exceptional character.

PALATE
Floral nuances develops further, complemented by candied ginger, cinnamon, honey, vanilla and well integrated oak. Sherried fruitiness ties everything together beautifully.
FINISH
