The Balvenie releases what it describes as its oldest whisky yet: an 88-year-old Single Malt Scotch Whisky from 1931. The whisky is presented as part of The Balvenie’s newly launched 1931 Collection, which is designed around the idea of uncovering a rare historical release.
Channel NewsAsia and Wallpaper Magazine both report that the release is extremely limited. CNA says there are only 17 bottles available. Both outlets also highlight that artist Daniel Arsham creates the sculptural presentation for the whisky. The Balvenie’s showcase is described by Wallpaper as a sculptural display designed by Arsham, while CNA frames it as part of the brand’s 1931 Collection presentation.
While the outlets vary in wording—Wallpaper emphasizes the “relic” concept and the design of the showcase—both agree on the core details: the age of the whisky, its 1931 origin, Arsham’s involvement, and the small number of bottles.
