The Balvenie Distillery is located in the Scottish Highlands and around the River Spey. There is also Balvenie Castle, which dates back to 1010 and next to which the Balvenie New House was converted into the eponymous whiskey distillery in the 19th century. On May 1, 1893, the first distillation of Balvenie whiskey was completed there, with a quantity of 435 gallons (approx. 1,977 liters). Since that time, The Balvenie Distillery has been considered one of those whiskey producers who have dedicated themselves to the perfection of a complete Scotch whiskey enjoyment, which also includes the motto quality before quantity.
