The Balvenie 14 Year Old Caribbean Cask Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Single Malt Scotch Whisky | 43% ABV (86 Proof) | 750 mL
Process & Profile
Matured for 14 years in traditional oak casks, then finished in American oak barrels that previously held a custom blend of West Indian Caribbean rum. This double maturation, crafted by Malt Master David C. Stewart, brings a rich honeyed sweetness and tropical character to Balvenie’s classic Speyside malt.
Tasting Notes
Nose: Creamy toffee, rich vanilla, candied lemon, ripe mango, pineapple, and subtle spice
Palate: Silky caramel and brown sugar layered with tropical fruit—passionfruit, banana, and citrus peel—accented by gentle oak tannins and festive spice
Finish: Soft yet lingering; warm vanilla and spicy oak gradually fade to a sweet, tropical fade
