We’ve got our last Balvenie week podcast tonight at 8pm GMT. Episode 3 of the Balvenie Stories sees Gemma hearing the magic behind A Day of Dark Barley. It’s well worth a listen as @balveniegem catches up with David Stewart, MBE and MB (master blender) - a total whisky legend. We’ve absolutely loved Balvenie Week - hope you have too!! There are loads of podcasts to catch up on this weekend if you’ve not had a chance to yet ??'Standing in Balvenie distillery courtyard on a dreich day Maltman Robbie Gormley and Mashman Brian Webster take us back to a wet summer’s day in 1992 when the infamous delivery of dark barley caught the pair off guard. Recounting their years of friendship and night shifts at The Balvenie, Brian and Robbie give us a glimpse through decades spent at the distillery. Gemma is joined by David Stewart and Distillery Ambassador David Mair in the lounge at the Balvenie Visitor Centre to see how the original 14-year-old Roasted Malt has matured further into this new 26-year-old release.'
