A rare vintage 1979 15 year old Balvenie Single Barrel Highland Single Malt Whisky distilled on 18th August 1979 and matured for 16 years in a traditional oak cask with cask no. 14674, personally selected by Balvenie malt master David Stewart and bottled on 25th August 1995 in an edition of 300 individually hand-numbered bottles with no added colouring at 50.4% vol.
For the Balvenie Single Barrel series, only those casks from Balvenie's large warehouses are selected that have an exceptionally intense oak and fruit character. The resulting unique character reveals dried fruits and nuts and is complemented by a light oak flavour and subtle spicy notes with a long-lasting fruity finish. This single cask bottling from Balvenie emphasises and beautifully demonstrates the influence of the cask on the flavour of a whisky, each of which is unique in taste and strictly limited.
All bottles of this old vintage 1979 15 years Balvenie Highland single malt Scotch whisky were labelled by hand with the cask number, the date of distillation and the bottling date as well as the individual bottle number. The limited annual bottlings from the Balvenie Single Barrel limited edition series are of exceptional quality, are usually sold out within a short time and the old bottlings from the 1970s and 1980s in particular are now regarded by connoisseurs and collectors as coveted collector's whiskies and are rarely found.
