The Balvenie The Week of Peat 19
Rich and earthy smoke reveals syrupy sweetness, fresh citrus, creamy vanilla and honey, and ends with a cinnamon and ginger spice.
FLAVOUR PROFILE
“In a way, The Week of Peat was nothing new. In fact, arguably, it’s the only week of the year we make whisky the way it used to be made – using smoke from a heavily peated furnace, like in the very old days when every farm burned peat from the land (and made whisky in a pot over the fire, it’s worth remembering)."
THE TASTING NOTES

Nose
A malty sweetness on the nose complemented by beautifully toasted oak and rich smoke. Vanilla toffee gives way to a cinnamon spiciness.
