The Balvenie Founder’s Reserve 10-Year-Old | 1980s Vintage Expression

Description

Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Distillery Bottling 75cl / 40%

A wonderful old 1980s bottle of Balvenie 10-year-old Founder’s Reserve in the short-lived cognac-style bottle used in this era.

These 10-year-old Balvenies from the 1980s vary from batch to batch but generally speaking they’re delicious – honeyed sweetness as you’d expect from Balvenie, but also a slightly dirtier, oilier more complex style that is nowadays very uncommon not just from Balvenie but the majority of modern Speyside whiskies, which is a bit of a pity for those of us that really enjoy this old school style.
