Balvenie 26 Years Dark Barley Scotch Whisky 700mL

The third release in The Balvenie's Stories series, A Day of Dark Barley.  This release is a 26 Year Old Single Malt that has been matured in ex Bourbon casks but interestingly dark roasted malted barley (often used for the p[roduction of stout) was used, creating an aditional level of toastiness and roasted malt to the classic Balvenie profile of honey, vanilla and oak. 

The arrival at the distillery of a batch of dark roasted malted barley, more commonly used in the production of stout, marked the beginning of a 26-year long experiment. The result was a pleasing depth – smokiness and oakiness as well as the classic honey, vanilla and citrus flavours.

Tasting Notes

Nose - Big malty notes, soft brown sugar, vanilla toffee, blossom honey and a mild oaky spiciness.

Taste - Syrupy with a toffee sweetness, some citrusy notes of tangy orange peel, followed by oak vanilla and a touch of cinnamon and ginger spices at the end.

Finish - Enduring gentle waves of vanilla and oak spices.

ABV: 47.8%
