The Balvenie Caribbean Cask 14-year-old single malt is one of the first Scotches I purchased. I’ve heard good things about The Balvenie’s core range, and I find the process of “finishing” whisky interesting. Here we have a whisky that’s aged 14 years in “traditional oak whisky casks,” then finished in ex-Caribbean rum casks. There’s no official note on how long the whisky is finished in these rum barrels, but I’m guessing it’s just a few months.
