In the creation of The Balvenie Thirty, the esteemed Malt Master David C. Stewart MBE unites casks made from Traditional American and European oak, each having matured for multiple decades. This meticulous blend yields a whisky of unparalleled sweetness and intricate complexity.
The Balvenie Thirty unveils its velvety sweetness, leading to a symphony of rich honeyed notes, mellowness from the oak, and subtle hints of candied orange peel. It stands as a testament to the artistry and dedication that comes with three decades of maturation.
