The Balvenie Rose - 16 Year Old - Second Release is a whisky that reflects the heritage of Balvenie Castle. This limited edition single malt, distilled in 1991 and aged for 16 years, was finished in first fill port pipes, which contributes to its flavor profile. The whisky has a volume of 700 ml and an alcohol content of 50.3%.
The Balvenie Rose draws inspiration from the historical narrative of Margaret Douglas, also known as 'The Fair Maid of Galloway.' Married to members of the Black Douglas clan, she was caught in the political turmoil following their rebellion against King James II. Despite the Black Douglases losing their titles and estates, Margaret was favored by the King and allowed to remain at Balvenie Castle, with an annual rent symbolically set at a single red rose.
The second release of The Balvenie Rose is a product of the distillery's dedication to traditional whisky-making practices. It was made available exclusively at the Balvenie distillery and is a blend of whisky from four refill American oak casks finished in one first fill port pipe. The maturation process over 16 years has yielded a complex flavor profile.
For whisky collectors and investors, The Balvenie Rose - 16 Year Old - Second Release is notable for its historical connections and limited availability. As a distillery bottling from Balvenie, it represents a segment of whisky history and craftsmanship.
