The Balvenie 27 Years Old Distant Shores is a rare and deeply evocative single malt, born from the encounter between the distillery's honeyed character and an exotic finish that amplifies its elegance and complexity. After 27 years of maturation, the whisky expresses a surprising balance between ripe tropical fruit, fine wood and soft spicy notes. The palate is silky, warm, almost contemplative: a sensory journey that takes you far away, true to the name 'Distant Shores'.
An edition designed for connoisseurs, collectors and enthusiasts looking for a Balvenie with a unique and refined aromatic signature. Perfect as a collector's item or as an exquisite tasting experience.
Malt Master Kelsey McKechnie describes this Balvenie as "the perfect way to show the journey, representing Ian's work with Spanish bodegas".
It is a truly rich expression, with the familiar softness of honey revealing layers of spices and intense ripe fruits like a freshly baked Christmas cake, currants and sultanas giving way to chewy figs and a long, creamy, nutty finish.
It has deep layers of flavour, all created by maturing exclusively in European ex-sherry oak casks, which perfectly showcase the skill of The Balvenie's master distillers.

Distillates have different alcoholpercentages. So, we have defined a parameter allowing you to better understand and compare different prices. This parameter is calculated by dividing the bottle price by the alcohol content. The alcohol content (or strength) is the amount of pure alcohol (ethanol) contained in the distillate.
This parameter indicates the price of a single 4cl dosage of distillate. It is calculated by dividing the price of the bottle by its quantity (expressed in cl), then multiplying by the centilitres of the recommended single dose, as average in cocktail recipes.
