The Balvenie
DCS Chapter 5Beskrivning
David C. Stewart MBE is one of the longest serving malt masters in the Scotch whisky industry, having worked with The Balvenie for 54 years. As he contemplates retirement it’s important to David that he passes on his knowledge so others can follow in his footsteps and continue to produce a whisky of exceptional quality. The Balvenie DCS Compendium is David’s handover of this knowledge in both written and liquid form. David has selected 25 extremely rare and significant vintage single cask whiskies to be released over five years, capturing the breadth of his achievement and contributions to his craft.Chapter Five celebrates the Malt Master’s freedom to make decisions based on his preference and vision alone, the free rein to select casks for no other reason than he thought they were spectacular.

The Balvenie Triple Cask range, which comprises 12 year old, 16 year old and 25 year old variants, has been created exclusively for global travel retail, providing international travellers the opportunity to discover still more from this collection of handcrafted single malt whiskies.Triple Cask is created by combining The Balvenie that has matured in the three most traditional types of cask - first-fill bourbon, refill bourbon and sherry - in a large wooden vessel known as a marrying tun. These new marriages of The Balvenie are made to precise recipes refined over time by David Stewart to ensure each captures the distillery’s distinctive rich, smooth and honeyed style.
