The Balvenie Unveils New Edition of Historic Vintage Speyside Whisky

Imagine for a moment: a whisky distilled in 1973 that then spans generations in casks. When it is bottled, the majority has evaporated as Angel's Share, but what remains in the bottle is remarkable.

Malt Master Kelsey McKechnie has the honor of revealing The Balvenie Fifty Collection Second Edition, recently drawn from an American oak hogshead and a European oak refill butt.

The Balvenie Fifty Collection is more than just whisky: it's a Celebration of Speyside's rich heritage and a testament to The Balvenie Distillery's unwavering commitment to craftsmanship.'

A Precious Tribute to Craftsmanship
