The Balvenie 14 Peat Weak 70CL

The Balvenie 14 Peat Week 70cl is a remarkable Speyside single malt that showcases the distillery’s unique approach to crafting smoky whisky. Traditionally known for its honeyed, elegant, and unpeated style, Balvenie dedicates just one week each year to producing peated spirit. This rare practice results in the highly sought-after “Peat Week” bottling, aged for 14 years and released as a limited edition. For whisky lovers in Lebanon, it represents one of the most collectible expressions in the rare alcohol bottles Lebanon category.

The Balvenie’s Tradition
Established in 1892, The Balvenie Distillery is one of Scotland’s most respected whisky makers, located in Dufftown, Speyside. Known for its dedication to traditional craftsmanship, Balvenie grows its own barley, maintains a traditional malting floor, and employs a team of coopers and coppersmiths on-site. The 14 Year Old Peat Week is a testament to this heritage—created with the same commitment to quality but adding a rare smoky twist.

The Peat Week Concept
Every year, for one week only, Balvenie switches production to using peat-smoked barley. This small batch of peated spirit is then matured in American oak casks for 14 years, resulting in a whisky that combines Balvenie’s characteristic honeyed sweetness with layers of smoke, spice, and oak. This makes The Balvenie 14 Peat Week 70cl a fascinating whisky for those who enjoy smoky drams with balance and refinement.
