Burnside 27YO 1996

“Burnside” is a rare and charming teaspooned malt—predominantly Balvenie with a drop of Glenfiddich—crafted to conceal its true Speyside origin. This 27-year-old expression, aged in a sherry hogshead, is a masterclass in elegance and subtlety.

On the nose, rich aromas of figs, leather, and polished oak give way to a palate of stewed fruits, nutmeg, and dried apricots. The sherry influence adds opulent depth without overpowering the soft honeyed malt. A graceful and complex Speysider, cloaked in mystery.
