If you’re not familiar with The Balvenie, it’s a Scottish, handcrafted single malt whisky with a 130-year heritage. The distillery, founded by William Grant in 1892, sits in the rolling hills of the famed Speyside region in Scotland. Their latest collection, The Balvenie Fifty, celebrates the craftspeople who have left their mark on this whisky over the past half century.
To celebrate the launch of The Balvenie Fifty in partnership with Harrods, a special event was held at the magnificent regeneration project HIAVEN, organised by talented Luxury Event & Affluent Audience Consultant, Victoria Archibald.

Set within 100 acres of rewilded grassland in the Cotswolds, HIAVEN is a contemporary take on a country farmhouse and one of the UK’s most spectacular private residences. The idea of preservation made this location the most befitting venue for the launch of The Balvenie Fifty.

“The brief was a hospitality experience befitting of the peace and patience of the life of the liquid sat nurturing for half a century in its Dufftown distillery.”

Guests were invited to enjoy the unique architecture of the home and marvel at the great expanse of land that surrounds it. A curated tour of the grounds, interwoven with stories from the distillery’s history, offered an immersive journey into the world of The Balvenie. The experience culminated in a rare opportunity to taste this incredibly scarce whisky—truly a once-in-a-lifetime moment. An abundant feast followed, with our Ebba Stoneware Plates at the heart of the table, creating a stunning centrepiece for the extraordinary dining experience.
