The Balvenie Stories 19 Year Old A Revelation of Cask and Character
The Balvenie is a distillery built upon stories and tradition, with the craft of making its whisky handed down through the generations since it was built by William Grant in 1892. The Stories collection is a range of whiskies inspired by these tales, and A Revelation of Cask and Character is the story of the distillery’s coopers – the craftsmen who maintain The Balvenie’s casks.
Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Out Of Stock
The Balvenie is one of the few distilleries in Scotland with an on-site cooperage, where casks are repaired and maintained. Head cooper Ian McDonald has been working with casks for 50 years and this release taps into his extensive knowledge, as well as that of his colleagues who build sherry casks in Spain. The result is this 19-year-old oloroso-sherry-cask-matured expression with layers of dried fruit, nuts and spice.

About The Balvenie
Balvenie distillery was founded in 1892 by William Grant, a short walk from his first distillery: Glenfiddich. Along with Kininvie distillery, found in the grounds of Balvenie, these distilleries are at the heart of William Grant & Sons' whiskies and the home of some of Scotland’s best-known drams.
Very much a classic Speyside whisky, The Balvenie brings together crisp orchard fruit with honeyed notes. Equally at home maturing in bourbon and sherry casks, it remains one of Scotland’s most popular single malts, and both a great introduction to Scotch whisky and a favourite of drinks connoisseurs worldwide.
