The Balvenie 40 Year Old Single Malt Scotch WhiskyFour Decades of Liquid Gold The Balvenie 40 Year Old is a masterpiece from the Rare Marriages series, aged in American and European oak casks. At 40 years, its a symphony of honey, orange marmalade, and creamy fruit on the nose, with candied ginger, vanilla, oak, and sherry soaked fruit on the palate. Aged to perfection, its a rare gem for true whisky connoisseurs.
