Episode 6: The Creation of a Classic

The Balvenie

The Balvenie Stories Series takes you behind the scenes of The Balvenie, to meet the people and explore the places that helped shape this incredible range of whiskies. Hosted by Gemma Paterson, The Balvenie Global Ambassador. Gemma talks to Malt Master David Stewart about his early career at The Balvenie, reflects on the estimated half-million whiskies that David has nosed over the years, and talks about the processes that led to The Creation of a Classic. We visit the dunnage warehouse in Dufftown to draw some very special samples, before returning to David and Apprentice Malt Master Kelsey McKechnie to discuss the character and notes of this special Balvenie.
