Matured in refill American oak containers before being done in first fill European oak Sherry barrels, DoubleWood is a fabulous sample of what the Balvenie refinery can make, even at 12 years.
The Balvenie 12 Year Old Doublewood Scotch Whisky stands as a testament to the craftsmanship and dedication of The Balvenie Distillery, renowned for its commitment to traditional whisky-making techniques and exceptional quality. Located in Dufftown, Scotland, The Balvenie has been crafting fine whiskies since 1892, drawing upon centuries-old practices to produce some of the world's most revered single malts.
What sets The Balvenie 12 Year Old Doublewood apart is its unique maturation process, known as 'Doublewood'. This method involves aging the whisky in two distinct types of oak casks: first in traditional whisky oak barrels and then finishing it in European oak sherry casks. This dual maturation imparts a depth of flavor and complexity that defines The Balvenie's signature style. During its twelve years of aging, the whisky absorbs rich, spicy notes from the European oak while retaining the sweet, honeyed character from the whisky oak, creating a harmonious balance of flavors.
The result is a whisky with a rich golden hue and a nose that entices with aromas of dried fruits, honey, and subtle spice. On the palate, The Balvenie 12 Year Old Doublewood offers a smooth and creamy texture, with flavors of ripe fruits, nutmeg, cinnamon, and a hint of vanilla. The finish is long and warming, with lingering notes of oak and sherry sweetness.
As a brand, The Balvenie prides itself on its craftsmanship and attention to detail, with each bottle of whisky reflecting the skill and expertise of its distillers. The commitment to using traditional methods and high-quality ingredients ensures that every sip of The Balvenie 12 Year Old Doublewood Scotch Whisky is a testament to the distillery's legacy of excellence. Whether enjoyed neat, on the rocks, or as the foundation for a classic cocktail, The Balvenie 12 Year Old Doublewood is a whisky that invites exploration and appreciation, making it a cherished choice for whisky aficionados and newcomers alike.
