Balvenie 2002 14 years old Peat Week - b. 2017 - 70 cl

Balvenie Peat Week Aged 14 Year Old (2002 Vintage)
One of the first expressions from the classic Speyside distillery made from 100% peated barley, The Balvenie Peat Week 14 Year Old is the result of a series of trials carried out by clever duo David Stewart MBE, Balvenie malt master, and Ian Millar, prestige whiskies specialist.

For just one week a year since 2002, The Balvenie team has been quietly producing the smoky stuff, and the liquid destined for this batch has been fully matured in American oak casks. The Speyside stalwart as you've never tasted it before!

Nose
Notas florales y de fruta tropical con almendras y miel, y entonces se percibe el humo de turba.

Palate
Vainilla con toques de cítricos, durazno y miel, y un humo de turba suave, casi floral — muy diferente al de Islay.

Finish
Largo y suave, con una cremosidad que perdura.

Overall
El caracter inconfundible de Speyside con miel equilibra muy bien con la suave influencia de la turba. The Balvenie reinventado, pero no por completo.
