Description

The Balvenie 10 Year Old Founder's Reserve was a staple of the Balvenie core range, launched in the 1980s and discontinued around 2009. This particular bottling is presented in a distinctive cognac-shaped bottle, a style used for a short period in the early 1990s, and was imported for the German market. It is a single malt Scotch whisky matured in a marriage of bourbon and sherry casks, carefully selected by Malt Master David Stewart.
