Balvenie 14 Year Old - The Week of Peat Whisky

This is possibly the smoothest, silkiest peat-smoke whisky I’ve ever tried. Love it!

The smell of fruits and vanilla with a smoke on the background. The combination is perfect.
Just superb and not cheap. But worth every penny.

I'm really enjoying this, it's a lovely well balanced Whisky. For me, it could be more peaty. I will try the 17 y/o next as I have heard that may hit the spot.

I would say more smoke than peat , But yes quite a lot of peat quite a lot on the citrus orange peel , Got to be honest not one of my favourite malts , As it doesn’t carry a lot of sweetness to my liking , I’ll stick to Lagavulin which has both ,Glad I didn’t pay to much for it ‘

ABSOLUTELY LOVELY !
I would love to have every week made into peat weeks.
The beautiful rich smokey flavor is unmatched by any other !

You have won the single malt battle !

Bought it for my dad last year and he won't stop going on about how incredible it is. Can safely say I'm sorted for fathers days to come now.

Absolutely delightful dram. Just the right amount of smoke balanced with the delicate Balvenie whisky. Much more subtle and interesting than the island peated whiskies. A great whisky at a great price.

After I retired my physician suggested I might want to have a wee dram of an evening (not how he put it exactly). It was a surprising suggestion, but one I was not inclined to argue with. Back in my youthful drinking days I had not developed a taste for scotch, which I attribute to the cheap varieties available to me at the time. As I shopped for that "wee dram of an evening" I eventually came across a scotch with "peat" in its description. That intrigued me. The smell of that first drink brought an immediate memory of the small bottle of coal oil that my Grandmother Hart used to keep in her medicine cabinet. Although that scotch was good it was not Balvenie The Week of Peat. But, it introduced me to the wonderful taste that peat brings to the drink and when I came across Balvenie The Week of Peat I did not hesitate to bring it home. The Balvenie The Week of Peat scotch offers a more refined, more complex taste. It is delightful from beginning to finish.

Great to have that hint of vanilla sweetness with the peat.

An incredibly smooth scotch with a long finish. The taste of vanilla and smokey peat remains on your pallette until your next sip where it revives again.
