The Balvenie 40 Year Old Rare Marriages 750ml

To create Batch One of only 150 bottles of The Balvenie Forty, Malt Master David Stewart has skillfully married together small amounts of The Balvenie matured in 4 refill hogsheads and 3 sherry butts that have lain in our warehouses for at least forty years.

TASTING NOTES
Nose: Rich oak notes overlaid with baked apple, stewed fruits and soft leather. The addition of a little water releases sweet fruit notes and hints of vanilla.
Taste: Silky texture delivers a beautifully mouth-coating sweetness and a spicy sensation of cloves, cinnamon and ginger. The flavor develops into a gentle oakiness with hints of dark chocolate, roasted almonds and sherried fruitiness.
Finish: Rich, warming and slightly dry.
