The Balvenie 16 Year Old French Oak Finished in Pineau Casks-

$189.99 $57.00 (In Stock)

Size: Default Title

The Balvenie French Oak is a vibrant single malt finished in casks previously held wine from the French Charentes vineyards.

Pineau des Charentes is a fortified wine made from unfermented grape juice, to which a Cognac eau-de-vie is added and then matured. Pineau us also found as a home-made product in the neighbouring Deau-Sevres and Vendee departements.

The Balvenie USA brand ambassador Lorne Cousin suggested Malt Master David C. Stewart MBE explore these casks after a trip to the region with his family where he fondly remembers sipping an aperitif.

This is the first of The Balvenie finishes to explore French Oak. Pineau is akin to cognac in terms of production and flavour, allowing us to capitalise on the rise of this flavour profile and its premium credentials.

WhiskeyLover88,

This Balvenie is a real gem! The smoothness and complexity for the price of $57 is hard to beat. I'm definitely buying more.

SippingSamantha,

I enjoyed this whisky. The floral notes are delightful, but I think I prefer the 12 Year Old over this one.

BudgetBourbon,

Honestly, I wanted to love it, but it feels a bit overpriced for my taste. It's good, but not great.

DistilledDude,

I had high hopes for this whisky, but it didn't quite deliver. The flavor profile didn't suit my palate.

OakAficionado,

Comparison to other cask-finished products reveals that The Balvenie stands out in richness and flavor complexity. A must-try!

HomeBarHero,

The rich oak and fruit flavors are just divine; I've already finished my first bottle and am back for more!

NewbieNerd,

I’m new to whiskey tasting, and this one was a recommended choice. It's definitely a step up from what I usually drink.

CriticalCalvin,

While I appreciated its uniqueness, it didn’t knock my socks off. I think I’ll stick to my usual brands.
