The Balvenie 16 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky, French Oak Pineau Cask Finish, 70cl

The Balvenie 16 Year Old French Oak (47.6% ABV) is a truly exceptional Single Malt Scotch Whisky. It is first matured for sixteen years in American Oak casks, infusing an abundance of sweet vanilla spice and warm honey notes into the liquid. Next, it is finished in French Pineau Fortified Wine Casks; a unique technique that emboldens our single malt whisky with an energizing grapefruit, geranium, glazed fruit and ginger flavour. This is an excellent addition to any whisky collection and would make the perfect whisky gift for a loved one, available in a 70cl bottle ready for gifting. The multi-award-winning Balvenie Distillery in Banffshire is famous for being the only distillery in Scotland to retain the traditional core crafts of whisky production. Nowhere else will you find a distillery that still grows its own barley, still malts its own traditional floor maltings and still employs a team of skilled coopers to tend all the casks and a coppersmith to maintain the stills.
