The Balvenie 12 Year Old Golden Rum Cask Single Malt Scotch Whisky – 70cl

$198.00 SGD

The Balvenie 12 Year Old Golden Rum Cask — a distinctive Balvenie finished in casks that previously held golden rum. Distinct from the Caribbean Cask (which uses a bespoke rum blend), the Golden Rum Cask uses matured golden rum casks specifically for their honeyed, tropical fruit character. Adventurous cask craftsmanship in the David Stewart tradition.

Frequently asked

Golden Rum Cask vs Caribbean Cask?
Both are rum-cask finished, but different rum sources. Caribbean Cask uses a bespoke David Stewart-designed rum blend. Golden Rum Cask uses casks that previously held matured golden rum from various sources. Distinct expressions of the same rum-cask philosophy.

What is "golden rum"?
Aged rum that develops a golden colour through oak maturation (typically 1-3 years). Different from white rum (unaged) or dark rum (heavier aged). Golden rum brings a specific medium-body character to whisky cask finishing.

Should I compare Caribbean vs Golden Rum tasting?
Ideal — the two rum-finish Balvenies work beautifully as a comparative tasting. Same underlying Balvenie 12 DoubleWood-style base, different rum influences.

NOSE

Aromatic and tropical — vanilla, honey, ripe banana, soft caramel, gentle spice, brown sugar, and warm toasted oak — distinctive and beautifully composed.

PALATE

Full and rounded — honeyed banana, brown sugar, vanilla cream, soft toffee, gentle nutmeg, and integrated oak — silky, layered, and harmoniously balanced.

FINISH

Long and warmly tropical — lingering brown sugar, vanilla, soft fruit, and a gentle rum-cask warmth fading slowly — refined and beautifully composed.
