Descripción

The Balvenie Distillery, which has been producing high-quality whisky since 1892, still preserves many traditional methods in its production process. For example, the barley is still grown on site and the distillery uses a traditional malting floor – a rarity in the modern whisky industry. In addition, Balvenie employs its own team of coopers who are responsible for maintaining and repairing the casks to ensure optimum quality throughout the maturation process.

Balvenie The Creation of a Classic is an impressive tribute to the creative expertise of David C. Stewart MBE, who has worked at Balvenie with great commitment and dedication for over 57 years. Prized for its depth and complexity, this exceptional whisky is first matured in American oak casks, which give it its distinctive base.

Once it has matured in these casks and developed its aromas, it is transferred to sherry casks, where it receives its distinctive finish. This carefully balanced combination of traditional maturation and innovative finish gives Balvenie The Creation of a Classic its unique quality and makes it a true masterpiece that impressively reflects David C. Stewart’s decades of experience. (automated translation)
