Description

Extraordinary depth; the perfect balance to create the most elegantly fruity expression. In a flawless whisky marriage, Malt Master David C. Stewart MBE brings together individual casks to craft an incredibly intricate and balanced expression; exemplifying the art and skill of Single Malt TUN marriages. A whisky of exceptional character, Twenty-Five hints at our most sought-after Balvenie flavours: bold vanilla oak, crystallised ginger and sweet runny honey. This luxurious expression is the result of exceptionally rare casks, matured for a quarter of a century and 'married' to create a whisky of flawless harmony, depth, and elegance.

Nose
Soft autumn fruits, runny honey, crystallised ginger, raw sugar cane, and rich oakiness. Hints of honey, beehive, beeswax, buttercups, juicy apricots, quince jelly, subtle pineapple, marshmallow, candied orange peel, mint leaves, shortbread, and creamy vanilla custard.
Palate
Bold vanilla oak flavors, layers of toasted marshmallows, fresh fruit terrine, cinnamon-infused apple tart, ginger, green grapes, honeyed sweetness, tropical fruit (papaya, coconut, pineapple, starfruit), layered oak, and subtle black licorice. Silky and rich with crystallized ginger, sweet caramelized pear, toasted oak, and subtle spices.
Finish
Exceptionally long-lasting sweetness. Notes of nutmeg, minty, lemon zest, caramel, and a big yet balanced oak note. Long, warm, and luxuriously refined with lingering sweetness and depth, and medium long with more honeyed fruits.
