Fairmont Pacific Rim, Vancouver’s definitive luxury hotel, is the proud owner of the Balvenie 50, an elegant single malt 50-year-old rare Scotch whisky.

Balvenie 50-year-old single malt Scotch whiskey is regarded as one of the most prestigious luxury spirits in the world, and Fairmont Pacific Rim has the only bottle made available in Canada. A perfect one ounce pour, offered at $2,600 CAD, will be available exclusively in the hotel’s Lobby Lounge beginning Friday, February 12, 2016. Guests will be able to sip on an exceptional Scotch whiskey in their own handcrafted and specially numbered ‘collector’s edition’ Baccarat crystal glass. The wee dram will allow those to experience a unique taste of history – literally.

The Lobby Lounge has become Vancouver’s premiere destination for cocktails and live music, with one of the world’s best bartenders, Grant Sceney, at its helm.

“We often host a sophisticated clientele in The Lobby Lounge who enjoy the finer experiences in life. This scotch is in itself a part of history and highlights years of elegant craftsmanship. It’s very rare that an opportunity like this comes along, and it represents our ongoing commitment to being the best lounge in the city and offering a unique experience for our guests,” comments Grant Sceney, head bartender at Fairmont Pacific Rim.

TASTING NOTES (750 ml, 45.4% ABV): Rich and deep with an abundance of elegant oak, notes of sweet raisins and a subtle ginger spiciness. Lush with dark fruits, a spicy outburst of ground ginger and cinnamon, and a lingering fruity sweetness.
