This particular Sherry Oak maturation whisky is the result of years of curiosity and learning, but the story of The Balvenie Coopers and their quest to unlock the hidden potential of each cask, it begins with an unexpected discovery even longer ago....

Oak casks were used to transport whisky, and by the time it reached its destination, the whisky would have taken on some of the depth and richness of whatever liquid these casks once held. Storage in certain casks became a conscious rather than circumstantial choice.

Head Cooper Ian McDonald knows this all too well, having worked with his team and his tools for over 50 years, he says. “I began my apprenticeship at 16, qualified in 1974, and I’ve been working at The Balvenie ever since.” The techniques Ian has practised over the years are the product of generations’ worth of knowledge which he, in turn, has passed to his apprentices. Over half a century building and toasting casks means Ian understands wood like no-one else.

Malt Master Kelsey McKechnie describes this unique 19-year-old Balvenie as “the perfect way to showcase the journey of our Coopers, representing Ian’s work with Spanish bodegas. It’s a really rich expression, with familiar honey smoothness revealing layers of spice, and intense ripe fruits like a freshly baked Christmas cake, currants and raisins then giving way to chewy fig, and a long creamy, nutty finish. It has deep layers of flavour, all created by maturation solely in European oak ex-sherry casks and showcasing our Coopers’ craft perfectly.”

THE RESULT

A familiar honey smoothness, revealing layers of spice, intense ripe fruit. like freshly baked Christmas cake. Giving way to a chewy fig, and a long creamy, nutty finish.
