Balvenie 25 Year Old Rare Marriages Scotch Whisky
A 25-year-old single malt from Balvenie’s Rare Marriages series, matured exclusively in European and American oak casks and married in a tun to create a fruity, elegant whisky. Aromas of autumn fruits, runny honey, crystalised ginger and oaky spice fill the nose, complemented by notes of toasted marshmallows, apple tart, cinnamon and fruit salad throughout the palate.
NOSE
Soft autumn fruits, runny honey, crystallised ginger and raw sugar cane. An underlying rich oakiness creates complexity and structure.
PALATE
The initial bold vanilla oak flavours slowly dissipate to reveal layers of toasted marshmallows, fresh fruit terrine and cinnamon infused apple tart.
FINISH
Exceptionally long lasting sweetness.
- COMMENT
This expression boasts extraordinary depth; the perfect balance to create the most elegant fruity expression that hints at the most sought-after Balvenie flavours – bold vanilla oak, crystallised ginger and sweet runny honey.

Quality Liquor Shop’s team was great in getting my bottle out their door quickly and efficiently. FedEx had a few snags in their delivery process, but I’m ultimately happy w/the experience and am looking forward to enjoying this bottle.
