Comprising three single malts, The Balvenie Stories range includes 12 Year Old The Sweet Toast of American Oak, 14 Year Old The Week of Peat and 26 Year Old A Day of Dark Barley.
A Week of Peat is a reincarnation of Balvenie Peat Week, a 14-year-old, heavily-peated malt which was launched globally in October 2017.
While the recipe remains the same, the 48.3% abv expression, which has notes of ‘gentle sweet peat smoke, citrus flavours, oaky vanilla and blossom honey’, has been renamed to fit into the new Balvenie Stories collection.
Further whiskies are expected to be released as part of the Balvenie Stories range in the coming years.
Nose: Gentle sweet peat smoke with light floral notes and a delicate butterscotch honey.
Palate: Well rounded with the peat smoke balancing citrus flavours, oaky vanilla and blossom honey.
Finish: Gentle smoke with a lingering and creamy vanilla sweetness.
Whiskey fun has scored this Balvenie 14 Year Old Stories Week of Peat 85/100 overall on their site through customer recommendations.
A reviewer said it was ‘extremely soft, clearly peaty but otherwise much rounded, vanilla-ed, and full of preserved fruits.’
