Balvenie DoubleWood 12 Year Old (70cl, 40%)

The flagship bottling from this famous Speyside distiller. A dessert-like dram, this is perfect for rounding off a rich meal.

Matured in a mixture of former Bourbon (or “whisky oak” as the distillery calls them) and ex-Oloroso sherry casks, this is a whisky that exudes balance and complexity. After maturation, the whiskies are married together for between 3 and 4 months in large wooden vessels called “tuns”, a classic Balvenie touch.
