Description

Ballindalloch Sunrise Over The Ben 2014


  • Ballindalloch Distillery presents "Sunrise Over The Ben", the oldest ever Ballindalloch drawn from only the 3rd cask ever distilled at the distillery.


  • Personally selected by founder Guy Macpherson-Grant, the whisky has been matured in a first fill bourbon barrel before a finish for 3 years in a red wine barrique, exemplifying the versatility of the Ballindalloch spirit.


  • Filled on 25th September 2014, the whisky was bottled at cask strength of 58.8% abv on 1st July 2025, becoming the oldest whisky the distillery has released to date.


  • The sun shaped bottle filled with red wine barrique finish Ballindalloch represents the morning sun, resting within a piece of antique crystal cullet, inspired by the sunrise over Ben Rinnes.


  • The one of one presentation was designed and hand engraved by local Moray 'Artist in Glass' Giles Lawson Johnston, son of the late Hon. Andrew Lawson Johnston - who held the prestigious Royal Warrant for Artist in Glass.


  • Andrew acquired the precious crystal cullet in the 1960s, engraving pieces for Ballindalloch’s private collection. Today, his son continues this legacy, breathing life into the art with the same passion and precision.
