CASK TYPE: Refill American Oak Hogsheads.

NUMBER OF BOTTLES: 752

STRENGTH: 44.6% Vol.

SIZE: 700 ml.

A natural cask strength single grain Scotch Whisky from Port Dundas, a historic grain distillery that closed in 2009. From refill American Oak hogsheads filled in 1964, Port Dundas is an example of very old grain, with a hugely fruity centre. It's astonishingly rich and complex for a grain whisky, and might be mistaken for a classy bourbon on the nose and in the mouth.

APPEARANCE: Rose gold – simply exquisite.

NOSE: Rich butterscotch leads quickly into pastry and masses of sweet, with a top note of fruit chews on a base of fruit salad in syrup. This folds into classic vanilla toffee and planed oak as a more savoury and meaty note develops, adding an umami richness, while everything remains fresh.

BODY: Light to medium with some oiliness.

PALATE: Creamy in texture and lightly sweet, with honey and golden syrup. Some dried fruit is succeeded by a decadent fruit salad of wine gums balanced by fresh fruits. Spice builds as the fruit fades, with freshly sawn oak and cinnamon.

FINISH: Long, warming and oaky.

Summary: 

COUNTRY/REGION: Scotland/Speyside.

BOTTLING SERIE: Peat Week.

VINTAGE: 2003

BOTTLED: 2018

STATED AGE: 14 years old.

CASK TYPE: American Oak.

STRENGTH: 48.3 % Vol.

SIZE: 700 ml.

The Balvenie Peat Week Aged 14 Years (2003 Vintage) is the result of trials undertaken in 2001 by The Balvenie Malt Master David C. Stewart MBE and our former distillery manager Ian Millar.

At a time when few Speyside distilleries were using peat in production, The Balvenie decided to distil a batch of heavily peated malt, which was laid down to mature at the distillery in Dufftown, Scotland.

Ever since then we’ve dedicated one week each year, named Peat Week, to using 100% Highland peat to dry our barley. Instead of coastal elements of iodine, salt and medicinal characteristics so commonly associated with Islay peat, Highland peat imparts earthy, woody smoke notes. This means that even though Peat Week is made using heavily peated malt (30ppm) it has an unexpected sweetness deeply rooted in the Speyside regional character.

The Balvenie Peat Week Aged 14 Years (2003 Vintage) is a single vintage bottling, limited and rare by nature. This non-chill filtered expression is bottled at 48.3% ABV and matured solely in American Oak casks, providing a velvety and round taste with woody peat smoke balancing oaky vanilla and honey.

NOSE: Gentle sweet peat smoke with some lighter floral notes and delicate butterscotch honey.

TASTE: Velvety and round to taste with the peat smoke balancing citrus flavours, oaky vanilla and blossom honey.

FINISH: Gentle smoke with a lingering and creamy vanilla sweetness.
