Selected by David Stewart, the Balvenie Malt Master at the time this rare single cask #15354 from 1975 was distilled on 23rd September 1975 and bottled in April 2008 at a cask strength of 47.3% ABV. 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).
