Part of the coveted ‘Stories’ range. The Edge of Burnhead Wood celebrates the pastoral tale of how The Balvenie craftsmen experimented with the distillery’s natural resources to find the perfect match between fresh heather and barley. The expression, which is made from locally sourced ingredients found in the distillery grounds — home-grown barley malted at The Balvenie Maltings, water from the natural springs on the estate, and fresh heather from Burnhead Wood — retains the familiar robust Balvenie taste, with delicate fruitiness, as well as notes of light spice and juicy fruits. Drinkers can listen to the story behind the creation of The Edge of Burnhead Wood via a specially recorded podcast series by the curators of the liquid. They can access this audio content via a QR code on the bottle, that can be activated using their smartphones.
