The Balvenie 14 Year Old Caribbean Cask is one of Speyside’s most beloved finished malts, balancing Balvenie’s classic honeyed malt sweetness with a vibrant Caribbean rum influence. The result is a whisky that feels both comforting and exotic—smooth, layered, and approachable, with enough depth to please seasoned whisky fans.
