A rare wine-finished Balvenie. The Second Red Rose is a follow-up to Balvenie's earlier Rose release, and a rare departure from the distillery's usual sherry and bourbon casks.

This 21-year-old was finished in Australian Shiraz casks, which bring ripe red and black fruit to Balvenie's honeyed, fruity house style. It's elegant, layered and increasingly hard to find.

Who it's for: Balvenie collectors and fans of wine-cask whisky.

How to enjoy it: Neat, after a good dinner.
