Balvenie 27 Year Old ‘A Rare Discovery from Distant Shores’

48% abv

Vol- 70cl

A Rare Discovery From Distant Shores celebrates the friendship and collaboration between different spirits producers. Matured for 27 years, this single malt spent its final seven years finishing in ex-Caroni rum casks, which ought to be pretty exciting for fans of the long-closed Trinidadian distillery. We all know how well Balvenie’s whisky does in a rum cask, and these rare barrels found their way to the distillery thanks to a meeting between its head distiller David Stewart and John Barrett of legendary rum bottler, Bristol Spirits. What a serendipitous meeting that was, celebrated in the form of this magnificent whisky.

Originally founded under the name of Glen Gordon, The Balvenie is the second distillery built by William Grant (after Glenfiddich). When the Balvenie distillery was built in 1892, it was outfitted with second hand stills from the Lagavulin and Glen Albyn distilleries.

This was one of the first distilleries to introduce a ‘finished’ single malt with the launch of 'Double Wood' in 1993, which was first aged in ex-Bourbon casks before being given a short period of secondary maturation in ex-sherry - a practice that is now commonplace in the industry.
