Up until very recently, Kininvie was hidden away. Sharing a site with its more famous sister distillery Balvenie (they share mashtuns and washbacks but have separate stills), Kininvie has been producing malt whisky for the blends of William Grant's such as Monkey Shoulder without the spotlight on its own product. Occasionally, Kininvie is released as Hazelwood and, more recently, it has been bottled under its own name.
At present, there are two small batch releases, one for the Taiwan and UK markets respectively. This 17 year old sees the first release of Kinivie for the Travel Retail sector. Aged in 80% American Oak and 20% Sherry casks, so the same as its sister bottlings, this is a meaty little dram.
