百富 THE BALVENIE

百富酒廠現為威廉格蘭特父子公司旗下的品牌之一，位於蘇格蘭高地Speyside地區。1892年，將一座18世紀的豪宅（百富新宅）改造成酒廠，是至今唯一一家仍在現場進行所有5種稀有工藝的酒廠。

其特別的品質來自於繼承并發揚著其他麥芽威士忌釀酒廠所不再遵循的傳統手工技藝：依然在自有的麥田裡種植大麥，在傳統的發芽床手工發芽大麥，由桶匠悉心照看所有的橡木桶，由經驗豐富的銅匠精心維護著銅制的蒸餾器。

The Balvenie distillery was established in 1892, owned by William Grant & Sons. The distillery is located in the Speyside area of Scotland, where they reconstructed the “Balvenie Castle” into a distillery in the 18th century.

The use of locally grown barley is preferred, and it is floor-malted where possible. Of the 120+ distilleries in Scotland, Balvenie is one of only seven distilleries with its own malting floor. And the only distillery that still practises all 5 of the Rare Crafts all on site (growing barley, malting barley, onsite Copper Smith, onsite Cooperage, and The Balvenie Malt Master, David C Stewart).
