Balvenie 1980 15 Years Single Barrel Oak Cask No. 12505 Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky 50.4% Vol. - one of only 300 bottles of a magnificent old Balvenie Highland Single Malt!
A very rare vintage 1980 15 years old Balvenie Single Barrel Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky in the rare 1.0 litre bottling, distilled on 24th September 1980, selected by Balvenie Malt Master David Stewart after 15 years maturation in oak cask no. 12505 and bottled on 14th October 1996 by hand without added colouring at 50.4% vol. in an edition of only 300 bottles.
For the Balvenie Single Barrel series, only those casks from Balvenie's large warehouses are selected that have an exceptionally intense oak and fruit character. The resulting unique character reveals dried fruits and nuts and is complemented by a light oak flavour and subtle spicy notes with a long-lasting fruity finish. This single cask bottling from Balvenie emphasises and beautifully demonstrates the influence of the cask on the flavour of a whisky, each of which is unique in taste and strictly limited.
The special vintage 1980 15 years Balvenie Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky was bottled without the addition of dyes or chill filtration, and the label was hand-lettered with the cask number, bottling date, in-cask date and individual bottle number. The limited annual bottlings from the Balvenie Single Barrel limited edition series are of exceptional quality, are usually sold out within a short time and the old bottlings from the 1970s and 1980s in particular are now regarded by connoisseurs and collectors as coveted collector's whiskies and are rarely found.
An old and collectable vintage 1980 15 years Balvenie Highland Malt Scotch Whisky matured in traditional oak cask and rare highlight from the Balvenie Single Barrel limited release series bottled in the year 1996 for connoisseurs, whisky collectors and lovers of fine old Scotch whiskies.
