Founder's Reserve. Bottled 2000s. 70cl. 40%. No box.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA classic bottling of The Balvenie Founder's Reserve 10 Year Old. Originally introduced during the 1980s, Founder's Reserve remained a cornerstone of The Balvenie's range until its discontinuation in 2009. This particular bottling dates from the 2000s and features the final label design used before the expression was retired. Bottled at 40% it offered an elegant introduction to the distillery's distinctive Speyside character and became one of Balvenie's most recognisable single malts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProduced under the guidance of legendary Malt Master David Stewart, Founder's Reserve was matured for a minimum of ten years in traditional oak casks, resulting in the classic Balvenie profile of honeyed sweetness, soft vanilla, orchard fruits and gentle oak spice. Its smooth, approachable style made it a favourite with both newcomers to single malt and long-time enthusiasts alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFollowing its withdrawal in 2009, as Balvenie focused on expressions such as DoubleWood 12 Year Old, Founder's Reserve has become an increasingly nostalgic and collectible bottling. Representing an important chapter in the distillery's modern history, it remains a wonderful example of the elegant, approachable style that helped establish Balvenie's worldwide reputation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e","brand":"Whisky-Online Auctions","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58489935430013,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Balvenie 10 Year Old - Founders Reserve - 2000s-Lot Id:0526-154","offer_id":58489938182525,"sku":"0526-154","price":52.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0529\/0036\/4446\/files\/0526-154-1_9e06eda0-2c9f-456b-90d9-d117899e9fb9.jpg?v=1785961275","url":"https:\/\/whisky-onlineauctions.com\/products\/balvenie-10-year-old-founders-reserve-2000s-lot-id-0526-154","provider":"Whisky-Online Auctions","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
