Balvenie 2005 - 18 y.o. - French Pineau Cask #53 Curious Casks

Special features: This 18-year-old bottling from the renowned Balvenie Distillery initially matured in traditional casks before undergoing an extensive finish in an exclusive French Pineau Cask.

As part of the "Curious Casks" series, this edition is dedicated to exploring rare and unusual types of casks.

  • Palate: Full-bodied with sweet hints of honey and seasonal fruits, complemented by fine oak tones and subtle herbal nuances.
  • Finish: Long-lasting, slightly dry with a pleasant spiciness and a touch of oak.

Distillery/Bottler: Balvenie is one of the most traditional distilleries in the Speyside region of Scotland, known for artisanal production methods and careful cask selection. Since 1892, Balvenie has aimed to produce classic single malt whiskies with character and depth. The in-house philosophy places great importance on natural maturation without chill filtration and the addition of coloring.
