Product Overview

The Balvenie 14 Years The Week of Peat is a unique Speyside single malt that pays tribute to the one week each year when the Balvenie distillery switches from traditional unpeated malt to peat-dried barley. Crafted by Malt Master David C. Stewart MBE, this expression is aged for 14 years in American oak casks, resulting in a beautifully layered whisky that delivers subtle smoke wrapped in sweet vanilla, citrus, and honey.

Part of Balvenie’s “Stories Collection,” The Week of Peat is perfect for those who appreciate a refined introduction to peated Scotch without overwhelming smokiness.

Tasting Notes

🔥 Aroma - Gentle, earthy peat smoke layered with honey, citrus peel, vanilla, and floral notes. There’s a touch of charred oak, green apple, and soft spice—subtle and inviting rather than overpowering.

🥃 Balanced and approachable – sweet honey and creamy vanilla lead the way, followed by soft peat smoke, toasted oak, and hints of orange zest and barley sugar. The smoke adds depth without overwhelming the distillery’s signature sweetness.

🎯 Medium to long – softly smoky and warming, with lingering notes of sweet malt, gentle spice, and a faint trace of dry wood smoke.
