Balvenie 12 year old Double Wood malt whisky
Region: Speyside
Age: 12 years old
Bottle Size: 70cl

The Balvenie Doublewood Single Malt Scotch Whisky is a 12 year old single malt which gains its distinctive character from being matured in two woods.
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.
TASTING NOTES
Nose: Sweet fruit and oloroso sherry notes, layered with honey and vanilla.
Taste: smooth and mellow single malt of beautifully combined flavours - nutty sweetness, cinnamon spiciness and a delicately proportioned layer of sherry
Finish: A long and warming finish.
