THE BALVENIE Stories The Week of Peat 14 Year Old Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky 70cl 48.3%
Part of The Balvenie Stories range, The Week of Peat tells the tale of the single week each year when Balvenie briefly switches from its traditional unpeated production to crafting a gently peated spirit. This rare practice results in a unique style that marries Balvenie’s signature honeyed sweetness with soft, aromatic peat smoke.
Matured for 14 years and bottled at 48.3%, this release offers a beautifully balanced and approachable introduction to peated Speyside whisky — elegant, lightly smoky and filled with the warm, comforting character that defines Balvenie. A whisky born from tradition, curiosity and the distillery team’s willingness to experiment.
