Product Description:
A classic Speyside single malt, The Balvenie DoubleWood 12 Year Old gains its distinctive character from maturation in two different wood types. It spends most of its 12 years aging in traditional American oak ex-bourbon casks, which impart soft vanilla and honey notes. It is then transferred to first-fill European oak Oloroso sherry butts for a finishing period (around 9 months). This "wood finishing" process, pioneered by Balvenie, adds depth, complexity, rich dried fruit notes, and spice.
Tasting Notes:
- Nose: Sweet fruit (like berries or plums) and Oloroso sherry notes, layered with honey and vanilla.
- Palate: Smooth and mellow with beautifully combined flavours – nutty sweetness (almonds/hazelnuts), warming cinnamon spice, vanilla, honey, and a clear sherry influence.
- Finish: Long and warming, leaving lingering notes of gentle spice and sweetness.
