Balvenie 30 Year Old

Description

The Balvenie Thirty is a rare and especially fine single malt for which David Stewart selects only exceptional casks that were laid down over thirty years ago. ‘Thirty’ is bottled at 47.3% abv to capture all the signature characteristics of The Balvenie. By marrying The Balvenie slowly aged in traditional oak whisky casks with that aged in European oak sherry casks, David creates a rich, mellow Scotch whisky with unusual depth and complexity which captures all the signature characteristics of The Balvenie
