from the producer

The Balvenie distillery was built by William Grant in 1892 beside Glenfiddich in Dufftown, Speyside, and is still owned by his family's company, William Grant & Sons.

It is known for keeping traditional crafts in house: a working floor maltings, a cooperage, a coppersmith tending the stills, and barley grown on the distillery's own farm. That hands-on approach, and decades of cask-finishing experiments led by Malt Master David Stewart, define its honeyed style.
