The Balvenie Twenty Five
The Balvenie Twenty Five
Extraordinary depth; the perfect balance to create the most elegantly fruity expression.
In a flawless marriage, Malt Master David C. Stewart MBE brings together individual casks to craft an incredibly intricate and balanced expression; exemplifying the art and skill of Traditional Oak Tun Marriages with liquid from European and American casks.
A whisky of exceptional character, Twenty-Five hints at The Balvenie’s most sought-after flavours - bold vanilla oak, crystalised ginger and sweet runny honey.
Presented in a case of rich burgundy colour that graduates to a lighter ombré hue, the colours represent the evolution of flavours in the marrying process. Rings of white gold foil represent each year of maturation.

THE TASTING NOTES
-
Nose
Smooth and honeyed on the nose with mellow oaky tones and hints of candied orange peel.
-
Taste
The initial bold vanilla oak flavours slowly dissipate to reveal layers of toasted marshmallows, fresh fruit terrine and cinnamon infused apple tart.
-
Finish
Exceptionally long lasting sweetness.
