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.
Nose ~ Sweet fruit and oloroso sherry notes, layered with honey and
vanilla.
Taste ~ A smooth and mellow single malt of beautifully combined flavours -
nutty sweetness, cinnamon spiciness and a delicately proportioned layer of sherry - with a long and
warming finish.
