The Balvenie Doublewood 12yo

The Balvenie 12 Year Old DoubleWood is the perfect introduction to a matured whisky for any collection or an exceptional gift for a whisky enthusiast. Hailing from the multi-award-winning Balvenie Distillery in Banffshire, this Scotch showcases the timeless craftsmanship of a distillery that still grows its own barley, malts traditionally on the floor, and employs a dedicated team of coopers and a coppersmith. This 12-year-old whisky is matured in two types of oak casks: first, American oak ex-bourbon barrels, which impart a mellow vanilla and spice, followed by a further maturation in Spanish oak Oloroso sherry casks for nine months, deepening the complexity with fruity, honeyed undertones. For an added layer of richness, the whisky is allowed to marry in large oak vessels, enhancing its smoothness. With delicate hints of candied fruit, coconut, and vanilla, this whisky delivers a long, warming finish—ideal for those who appreciate fine, intricate flavours.
