The [Balvenie Edge Of Burnhead Wood](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/colder-months) 19 Year [Single](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-glendronach-cask-strength-batch-12) Malt Scotch Whisky has been created by the Dufftown, Scotland-based distillery as a premium libation that will satisfy drinkers looking for an authentic spirit to sip a snifter of.

The scotch was created back in 2000 when the Estate Manager at the time sourced fresh heather from the nearby Burnhead Wood on the Conval Hills. The heather was processed and paired with barley that was also grown on the property along with Robbie Dhu spring water before being aged for 19 years. This make the spirit a product made entirely with local ingredients that is sure to satisfy connoisseurs on the hunt for a new [premium option to try out](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/exclusive-single-malt-scotch-whiskies).

The Balvenie Edge Of Burnhead Wood 19 Year Single Malt Scotch Whisky is priced at around $320 a bottle.
