The Balvenie French Pineau Cask Finish 18 Year

The Balvenie French Pineau Cask Finish 18 Year Scotch is a masterful expression of time, innovation, and craftsmanship. This single malt whisky entices with complex layers of spice and rich sweetness, followed by notes of creamy vanilla and honey. Gentle oaky tannins complete the tasting experience, leaving a balanced and unforgettable impression.

Crafted from a bold experiment by the legendary David C. Stewart, MBE, the whisky owes its remarkable character to an unusual maturation process. The French Pineau casks, initially deemed unready by David's meticulous standards, were given a chance to evolve further under the careful supervision of Kelsey McKechnie. Eight years later, the result is sheer brilliance, showcasing the enduring influence of both time and The Balvenie’s innovative spirit.
