The Balvenie has released its oldest whisky ever, an 88-year-old single malt distilled in 1931, as part of the 1931 Collection. Only 17 bottles of this rare whisky exist, making it a highly exclusive product. The collection also includes two limited-edition whiskies aged 12 and 15 years. The release was accompanied by a collaboration with artist Daniel Arsham, who designed the presentation based on themes of time and heritage. The whisky was first sampled by The Balvenie Malt Master Kelsey McKechnie in 2019 and was kept in storage until now. The 1931 Collection marks a historic milestone for the distillery, surpassing its previous record holder, The Balvenie Sixty, a 60-year-old whisky. The whisky was matured in a European oak sherry butt sourced from Spain and was part of The Balvenie's tradition of floor malting, one of its five rare crafts.
