Description: The Balvenie is a distillery with a rich history of experimentation with sherry-cask maturation. Here, they’ve used a Pedro Ximénez sherry butts to finish off an eighteen-year-old whisky. It’s the second sherry-finished expression in this range. The Balvenie Pedro Ximenez Cask is a lively and summery single malt finished in casks which previously held Pedro Ximenez sherry. PX is a white Spanish wine grape variety grown in several Spanish wine regions. The heat of the sun ripening the vines leads to a wine of intense sweetness, dessert like. Sherry casks have been used by The Balvenie before, with Ian Miller always interested to find the best casks for our double maturation expressions. Sherry is a popular cask type in Scotch Whisky, this is the second sherry finished expression in The Balvenie range of finishes.
