Built 1892 near the ruins of fourteenth-century Balvenie Castle by the Grants of Glenfiddich (next to the Glenfiddich distillery). The Balvenie distillery has been owned and managed by an independent family company for five generations and is still dedicated to the traditions, care and craftmanship of malt whisky making. Nowhere else will you find a distillery that still grows its own barley, that still malts its own traditional floor maltings, that still uses coopers to tend the barrels, and coppersmiths to tend the stills. Founder's Reserve 10 year old is a single malt from the Speyside region that has a rich colour, bouquet and flavour with a smooth, clean, dry finish.
