Commercial Decsription

The Balvenie Pedro Ximenez Cask is a lively and summery single malt finished in casks which previously held Pedro Ximenez sherry.

PX is a white Spanish wine grape variety grown in several Spanish wine regions. The heat of the sun ripening the vines leads to a wine of intense sweetness, dessert like.

Sherry casks have been used by The Balvenie before, with Ian Miller always interested to find the best casks for our double maturation expressions.

Sherry is a popular cask type in Scotch Whisky, this is the second sherry finished expression in The Balvenie range of finishes.

Tasting Notes:

Nose: A medley of flavours from raison and bursting currants, intertwine oak and subtle clove, concealing smooth sweet lavender.

Taste: A modern classic fruit fusion of tart grape skin, mandarine and fig flow together with vibrant oak to coat the mouth with a delicate oil and honeyed sweetness.

Finish: Unmistakeable.
