(Speyside Dufftown) Balvenie Double Wood 12 year 70cl

Balvenie Double Wood 12 year old Malt Whisky during its period of maturation, The Balvenie Doublewood is transferred from a traditional oak whisky cask to a first fill Spanish oak sherry cask. Each stage lends different qualities to the resulting single malt - the traditional casks, having previously held bourbon, soften and add character, whilst the sherry wood brings depth and fullness of flavour. Nose: Sweet fruit and oloroso sherry notes, layered with honey and vanilla. Palate: Sweet and honeyed with intense malt meeting the soft peat and controlled sherry fruitiness. Finish: Smoky and a little spicy with a bigger vanilla tang. Comment: A more intense malt than the Founder's Reserve. Despite its finesse, it is just shaded in regard to all-round complexity. Still nothing short of glorious.
