BALVENIE A DAY OF DARK BARLEY 26YR 47.8% 700ML SINGLE MALT SCOTCH WHISKY (SPECIAL ORDER 1 WEEK)

The third release in the beloved The Balvenie Stories series, A Day of Dark Barley 26 year old Single Malt Scotch Whisky is a taste back in time to a day in 1992 when Balvenie Distillery mashman Brian Webster along with maltman Robbie Gormley attended the delivery of dark barley - and initiating the start of a long and lauded experiment. Uncommon in the whisky world, dark barley is typically used in the brewing of beer, or more specifically, stout. The Balvenie A Day of Dark Barley 26 year old Single Malt is aged for a minimum of 26 years in first-fill ex-bourbon casks and bottled at 47.8% ABV. Produced in limited quantities, A Day of Dark Barley 26 Year Scotch offers aromatic notes of crisp green apples and gummy candies with layers of floral, white grapes, and pears tucked between swathes of dewy green grass. The palate shifts up the sweetness with swirls of honey, vanilla, and spice complementing hues of salt, butter, and poignant ginger.
