About the Balvenie Distillery
In 1892, William Grant began converting an 18th century mansion (Balvenie New House) into a distillery. In 1893, the first distillation took place at the Balvenie Distillery. The Balvenie Distillery has been owned and managed by the same independent family company for five generations (William Grant & Sons).
Whisky Reviews:
Tobin’s Review 4.5 out of 5
Balvenie’s Caribbean Cask 14-year Single Malt has a nice bronze hue with a light black cherry nose. This whisky is smooth with sweet cherry wood, a little caramel and vanilla that ends with cherry flavors. This is a delicious whisky!
