| | Balvenie |
| | Balvenie was built next to the castle of the same name in 1892, on the back of the success of Glenfiddich. | | | Although Glenfiddich is still the market leader in terms of sales, Balvenie is generally regarded as the stronger of the two in terms of quality across the range, which include some stunning wood-finished whiskies produced long before it became fashionable to do so. | | | Each bottling is of one unique, Single Cask (hence the name), especially selected to be bottled on its own. |

| | The Balvenie Portwood 1989 Single Malt Scotch Whisky is a single vintage Balvenie, matured in traditional oak casks since 1989 and transferred to port casks, or pipes, which have previously held fine port wines. | | | Although similar in age to The Balvenie Doublewood 12 Year Old, its maturation in specially selected port pipes has imbued The Balvenie with a very different taste compared to The Balvenie matured in sherry casks. | | | The taste of The Balvenie Portwood 1989 reflects the effect of maturation. |

| | Scotch Single Malt Whisky Distilleries in the Speyside, Dufftown District of the Highlands |
| | The previous, and still most prevalent method of adding a measure of sherry to a single malt was to mix together, at bottling time, whiskies that had spent their entire maturing period in one cask or the other. | | | The wine finishes being released by many distilleries have introduced new flavors (to varying degrees of success) but the idea of flavoring one whisky with another essentially produces the feel of a vatted malt. | | | Recently I saw a bottle of it in Edinburgh for $200. |

| | A (limited) taste of the 50s from The Balvenie |
| | The sherry cask is said to have given the whisky a variety of flavours, “from butterscotch to clover, honey, liquorice and chocolate”, according to David Stewart, malt master at The Balvenie. | | | Not only is Cask 191 the smallest ever release of The Balvenie, it is also the first to be matured in sherry casks, making it a shame that so few drinkers will be able to find it. | | | The reason for the limited bottling is simple — a whisky this old is affected by a number of factors, not least the evaporation of the spirit through the wood of the barrel, what is commonly called the Angel's Share. |
