A rare Speyside single malt shaped by heather, oak, and time.

The Balvenie 19 Year Old The Edge of Burnhead Wood is a distinctive release from The Balvenie Stories series, showcasing one of the distillery’s most unusual experiments with locally foraged heather from Burnhead Wood.

Matured for 19 years in American oak casks, this single malt brings together The Balvenie’s signature honeyed Speyside character with a more aromatic and woodland-inspired profile. Expect layers of sweet malt, soft oak, warm spice, dried fig, clove, and delicate floral heather.

Bottled at 48.7% ABV, it offers excellent richness and texture, while a splash of water reveals further notes of honey, fresh herbs, and lingering dry spice. Elegant, complex, and quietly adventurous, this is a memorable expression for Balvenie collectors and Speyside whisky lovers.
