Summary
The Balvenie Peat Week is a Speyside single malt whisky made in a style that introduces gentle peat smoke to the distillery’s typically honeyed, approachable character. It is known for balancing soft smoke with malt sweetness rather than pushing heavily smoky flavours.
At 14 years old, it offers an accessible way to explore peated whisky without the intensity found in more heavily smoky styles. For many drinkers, it sits comfortably between classic Speyside richness and a lightly smoky profile.
