Instead of coastal elements of iodine, salt and medicinal characteristics so commonly associated with Islay peat, Highland peat imparts earthy, woody smoke notes. This means that even though Peat Week is made using heavily peated malt (30ppm) it has an unexpected sweetness deeply rooted in the Speyside regional character.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eThe Balvenie Peat Week Aged 14 Years  is a single vintage bottling, limited and rare by nature. This non-chill filtered expression is bottled at 48.3% ABV and matured solely in American Oak casks, providing a velvety and round taste with woody peat smoke balancing oaky vanilla and honey.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Balvenie Peat Week 14 Year Whiskey Tasting Notes \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNOSE\u003c\/strong\u003e Gentle sweet peat smoke with some lighter floral notes and delicate butterscotch honey.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTASTE\u003c\/strong\u003e Velvety and round to taste with the peat smoke balancing citrus flavours, oaky vanilla and blossom honey.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFINISH\u003c\/strong\u003e Gentle smoke with a lingering and creamy vanilla sweetness.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e*Please \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003echeck mark the Product Box\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e if you would like the original \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Balvenie box if unchecked you will receive the bottle only.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Don's Liquors \u0026 Wine","offers":[{"title":"750ml","offer_id":52011739119937,"sku":null,"price":112.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0997\/7223\/6097\/files\/he_Balvenie_Peat_Week_14_Year_Whiskey.jpg?v=1784846402","url":"https:\/\/heritagereserves.com\/products\/the-balvenie-peat-week-14-year-whiskey","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
