The Balvenie 12 Year Old The Sweet Toast of American Oak is the introductory member of the Balvenie Stories range, creating whiskies which highlight the distillery’s heritage and people.

Malt Master David C. Stewart MBE crafts The Balvenie range of single malt whiskies. Each expression possesses a unique character, yet all exude richness, luxurious smoothness, and a distinctive honeyed note.

The Balvenie Distillery thrives on the narratives passed down from one generation of craftsmen to the next. These stories are the essence of their tradition. They serve as a conduit for knowledge transfer, the assimilation of experiences, and the birth of innovative ideas.

Inspired to produce an even fruitier, sweeter Balvenie whisky, Malt Master Kelsey McKechnie had the bright idea to import Virgin Oak barrels from Kentucky. After deep toasting them at The Balvenie Cooperage they were filled with Balvenie aged in ex-bourbon barrels.

Enjoy The Balvenie 12 Year Old The Sweet Toast of American Oak neat or with a splash of water to unlock its complex flavour profile.
