Description
Balvenie Double Wood 12Y 70CL is matured in a mixture of former Bourbon (or “whisky oak” as the distillery calls them) and ex-Oloroso sherry casks, this is a whisky that exudes balance and complexity. After maturation, the whiskies are married together for between 3 and 4 months in large wooden vessels called “tuns”, a classic Balvenie touch.
Tasting Notes:
NOSE: Sweet fruit and Oloroso sherry notes, layered with honey and vanilla.
TASTE: Smooth and mellow with beautifully combined flavours ~ nutty sweetness, cinnamon spiciness and a delicately proportioned layer of sherry.
