The Balvenie Caribbean Cask 14 Year Old
The Balvenie Caribbean Cask 14 year old single malt whisky has been matured in traditional oak whisky casks for 14 years, and then 'finished' in casks that previously held Caribbean rum. To create the ideal finish Malt Master David C. Stewart MBE filled American oak casks with his own blend of select West Indian rums. When he judged the casks to be ready, the rum was replaced with the 14 year old spirit and the wood was put to work adding the final touches. The result is an exceptional single malt whisky with the traditional smooth, honeyed character of The Balvenie married with notes of toffee and a hint of fruit, with a warm, lingering finish.

Note: A very small quantity of whiskies that came from this single barrel, so taste variability is higher than with larger production whiskies. Many times this is not a big deal (i.e. Blanton's), but sometimes it matters (i.e. Larceny Barrel Proof versions). If the specific barrel is not listed, ask your server or a store employee for more info, ask your server or a store employee for more info.

Glenfiddich Fire & Cane
Their Experimental series features innovative and ground-breaking single malts, expressions that explore the limits of whisky. There's an India pale ale-finished single malt, one that was aged in Icewine casks, as well as Project XX that had 20 industry veterans collaborating for its release. The Fire & Cane expression is an equally bold venture, a marriage of Glenfiddich's signature sweet style with an atypical smokiness. Peated whisky and bourbon-barrel-aged malts come together to be finished in Latin rum casks for an exquisite profile of smoke and toffee sweetness.
