The Balvenie Classic is a legendary love story and the first release by Master Malter David Stewart that transfers The Balvenie liquid, matured in traditional oak barrels, into the arms of Oloroso sherry casks. Creating a sweet finish on the lips, this unique pairing is testament to the craftsmanship it takes to create every fine drop of the Balvenie liquid: the matching of woods, the pairing of flavours, the patience behind maturation and the continuous tasting of liquids to create a malt you'll fall in love with.

Nose: Aromatic and lively, aromas of vanilla and spice evocative of dried clove and chai are layered on a base of earthly, malty undertones reminiscent of The Balvenie's own barley loft.
