Maturation in American oak casks mellows the spirit and imparts warming layers of vanilla spiciness.Balvenie was built on a 12 acre site adjacent to Glenfiddich in 1892/3. Originally known as Glen Gordon it took the name of the huge (ruined) castle which was located next door. The 'new' castle, already derelict in 1893, was turned into maltings.
