Distillery: Balvenie

Age: 10 Years

ABV: 40%

Cask: Bourbon and sherry casks

Size: 700 ml

The Balvenie Founder’s Reserve is a classic 10 year old Single Malt Scotch whisky which was created by The Balvenie Malt Master, David Stewart, from a marriage of bourbon and sherry casks. Originally launched since the early 1980s, the Founder’s Reserve is now discontinued. Various editions of this bottling were released, including some iconic releases such as the first editions that resembled a cognac bottle. Founder’s Reserve was discontinued in 2009 and replaced by the then current range of bottlings, which was more focused on finishes and original casks, like the Caribbean Rum Cask finish, 12 Year Signature Reserve etc..

On the nose, The Balvenie Founder’s Reserve is rich and complex with honey and orange notes and just a hint of peat. Its taste is full-bodied honeyed sweetness, with light spicy notes and a hint of sherry fruitiness. Its finish is long with a pleasant lingering richness (Distillery Tasting Notes).

We estimate this to be an early 1990s bottling.

Distillery: Balvenie

Age: 12 Years

ABV: 40%

Cask: First fill bourbon barrel, refill bourbon barrel and oloroso sherry butts

Size: 700 ml

This is the last batch of the Signature 12 release - Batch 5. Matured in 3 distinct casks, first fill bourbon barrel, refill bourbon barrel and oloroso sherry butts, this is truly Balvenie in its style - honey, spices and traditional oak. The Balvenie Signature 12yo replaced the previous favourite, Founders Reserve 10 Years Old as the core release within the distillery's range. This is a marriage of Sherry, Bourbon and Refill casks and, as always with Balvenie, it's a polished, mellow whisky to relax with. No Box is available.

This bottle has been signed by David C Stewart, the then Balvenie Malt Master.

A fully sherry cask matured whisky from Balvenie, which is unusual. Each bottle is part of a batch which comprises a few hundred bottles coming from a single cask and hence likely to somewhat different than the other batch while retaining the characteristics of Balvenie's spirit and flavours of rich sherry oak, dried fruits and subtle spices overlaid with a soft nuttiness and a nice long finish.

Bottled for the Taiwan market, only 216 bottles were released. "A richly complex aroma that is a harmonious blend of floral, fruity and spicy notes ~ including orange, fresh cherries, marzipan, cinnamon and a hint of allspice. Its taste reveals luscious layers of rich fruit, spicy oak, honey and delicate tannins. The flavours flow from sweet vanilla through to dried fruits (raisins, sultanas, apricots) and finish with subtle soft leather and tobacco leaf. Its finish is long and lingering with a crisp dry oakiness." (from Balvenie).

Cask: Oak/Caribbean Rum

Size: 700 ml

Released in August 2012, this whisky has been matured in traditional oak whisky casks and then ‘finished’ in casks that previously held Caribbean rum. To create the ideal finish Malt Master David C. Stewart MBE filled American oak casks with his own blend of select West Indian rums and when he judged the casks to be ready, the rum was replaced with the aged spirit and the wood was put to work adding the final touches. The result is the traditional smooth, honeyed character of The Balvenie married with notes of toffee and a hint of fruit, with a warm, lingering finish.  Nose: Rich, sweet and creamy toffee on the nose combines with fresh fruit notes Palate: Rounded with vanilla and sweet oak notes, with a fruity character that develops with time Finish: Soft and lingering
