The flagship single malt from Balvenie's little group of Port Wood whiskies. This bottling was finished in thirty year old port pipes and is a veritable masterclass in poise and balance.
The Balvenie PortWood 21 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky is a marriage of rare Balvenie aged 21 years in traditional oak casks and then finished in port casks or “pipes”. The taste of the Balvenie Portwood 21 Yr Scotch is refined and with remarkable character, it is creamy and silky on the palate, with fruit, honey and spice notes. On the nose it is perfume of fruity and ripe raisin notes, backed by a nutty dryness with a long, gentle and nutty finish. Best enjoyed neat, on the rocks or with a splash of water to expand the flavor. The Balvenie is dedicated to the five rare crafts that are used to create red and bottled at a higher strength of 47.6% abv.
