Balvenie 12 year old Double Wood

The Balvenie 12 years old Double Wood acquires its complex yet rich and smooth taste from its maturation in two different types of casks, carefully selected by award-winning Malt Master, Mr. David Stewart. First Cask: many years of maturation exclusively in traditional whisky oak casks. Second Cask: A further few months’ maturation in European oak sherry casks.

On the nose its hugely inviting with grapes, honeyed sultanas and nuttiness. To taste its sweet with good body, a gentle spice, hint of peat lurking and a combination of fruit and nut. The finish is slightly drying sweet and spicy.
