The Balvenie Double Wood 12 year old single malt whisky gains its distinctive character from being matured in two wood types. To make The Balvenie Double Wood, David Stewart MBE takes whisky that has spent at least 12 years in traditional whisky casks, American Oak ex-bourbon barrels & hogsheads, & moves it to Spanish oak ex-Oloroso sherry casks for an additional nine months. The whisky is then transferred to large oak vessels called tuns for 3-4 months to allow the whiskies to marry. Each stage lends different qualities to the resulting single malt whisky. The traditional casks soften & add delicate character, the sherry wood brings depth & fullness of flavour & the final few months in our tuns allow the whiskies to marry harmoniously. Nose: Sweet fruit & Oloroso sherry notes, layered with honey & vanilla. Palate: Smooth & mellow with beautifully combined flavours ~ nutty sweetness, cinnamon spiciness & a delicately proportioned layer of sherry. Finish: Long & Warming. ...
