The Balvenie A Revelation of Character 19yr Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky

The Balvenie A Revelation of Character 19yr Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky

750 mL
Item # 49460

Already one of the more sought after of the recent rare releases from this distillery, and for good reason. Everything about this whisky is rare, from the age, the amount bottled, the proof, but most importantly because of the wood used to age it. The Balvenie is one of the extremely few historic distillers left in Scotland that maintain their own in house cooper. And with the influence of oak on whisky, each cask unique, you could say this is obviously a seriously important investment. It is what has set them and this whisky apart for over a century. For over half a century Ian McDonald has mastered his craft to ensure only the best quality casks are used, in this Spanish Sherry Oak specifically. Very limited.
