The Balvenie Signature is a finely crafted single malt Scotch whisky that embodies the distillery's dedication to tradition and expertise. Created as a tribute to the craftsmanship of Balvenie's Malt Master, this expression is matured in a harmonious blend of three cask types: Oloroso sherry butts, first-fill bourbon barrels, and refill bourbon barrels.
The Balvenie is one of the most renowned and respected single malt Scotch whisky distilleries in the world. Located in Dufftown, Banffshire, in the Speyside region of Scotland, The Balvenie Distillery has been crafting exceptional whiskies since 1892.
The distillery is part of the William Grant & Sons portfolio, a family-owned company with a legacy of producing some of the finest Scotch whiskies. The Balvenie is unique in that it maintains a traditional approach to whisky production, controlling every stage of the process, from growing its own barley to malting, mashing, distilling, maturing, and bottling.
