The Balvenie 12 Year Old The Sweet Toast of American Oak Single Malt Scotch Whisky - 70cl
The Balvenie 12 Year Old The Sweet Toast of American Oak is part of the brand's Stories series — a Speyside single malt initially matured in American oak ex-bourbon casks, then finished in heavily toasted virgin American oak casks. The toasted virgin oak adds rich vanilla and aromatic spice to the long-aged Balvenie spirit.
Founded in 1892, family-owned. The Stories range showcases the personal experiments of the distillery's craftspeople.
A distinctive sipping single malt — neat or with a drop of water.
TASTING NOTES
NOSE
Aromatic and toasty — vanilla, sweet caramel, honey, ripe orchard fruit, soft baking spice, and warm toasted oak — beautifully composed.
PALATE
Smooth and rounded — honeyed vanilla, sweet caramel, ripe apple, gentle toasted oak, soft cinnamon, and integrated wood — silky and harmoniously balanced.
FINISH
Long and warmly oaked — lingering vanilla, sweet caramel, gentle spice, and a warm toasted-oak depth fading slowly — refined and beautifully composed.
ABV: 43% ABV
