Balvenie Stories Whisky

The Balvenie Stories is the Speyside distillery's way of giving each whisky its own narrative – three releases, each created using a specific technique and told through an accompanying podcast series. Rather than simply selling a bottle, Balvenie invites the customer behind the scenes to hear why this particular cask, finish or method was chosen. It's whisky where the story matters just as much as the taste.

    Balvenie 12 Year Old Montilla Wine Seasoned Cask Speyside Malt Whisky 47.3%

    Balvenie 12 Year Old Montilla Cask is a limited edition Speyside single malt with 47.3% ABV, matured in casks seasoned with sweet Montilla wine – a Spanish counterpart to sherry – adding warmth, fruit, and spice to Balvenie’s classic honeyed profile.

    This release is part of Balvenie’s A Collection of Curious Casks, where the distillery explores different types of cask maturation. Selected by malt master Kelsey McKechnie, the whisky is aged for 12 years in European oak casks previously filled with Montilla wine from Andalusia. The result is a soft and complex whisky with a clear vinous character and elevated strength that enhances its flavor nuances.

    The nose is fresh and delicate with notes of floral honey, light sugary tones, and gently toasted oak. The palate opens with sweet caramel, followed by rich vanilla, dried apricots, and warm spices. The finish is refreshing and balanced, with fruit and wood in elegant harmony.

    Balvenie Montilla Cask 12 Year Old is non-peated and bottled at 47.3%, offering extra structure and depth. It suits both collectors and curious whisky enthusiasts looking to experience a new interpretation of Balvenie’s classic style with a Spanish twist.

    Balvenie 14 Year Old The Week of Peat Speyside Malt Whisky 70 cl 48.3%

    Balvenie The Week of Peat 14 Year Old is a unique single malt from Speyside, produced during a special annual period when the distillery uses peated malt. This limited production run adds a gentle smokiness to Balvenie’s traditionally sweet and honeyed style, creating a distinctive balance between peat and elegance.

    The whisky is aged for 14 years and bottled at 48.3% ABV, offering a richer mouthfeel and depth. On the nose, it presents soft sweet peat, floral notes, honey, and hints of buttery shortbread. The palate is smooth and rounded, with restrained peat smoke complemented by citrus, vanilla, and floral honey. The finish is long and balanced, with lingering warmth and subtle spice.

    This expression is part of Balvenie’s Stories series, which highlights moments of innovation and tradition at the distillery. The Week of Peat reflects the influence of Islay-style whiskies while maintaining Balvenie’s Speyside character, making it a compelling choice for both peat lovers and fans of nuanced single malts.
