The Balvenie 12 Year Old Single Barrel 47.8% vol. 0.7 l

A single barrel from Balvenie. The whisky matured for at least 12 years in a first-fill cask that previously aged bourbon.

First Fill means that Balvenie fills this cask with Scotch for the first time. For the 12-year-old Single Barrel, the Master Distiller selects casks that are particularly sweet and vanilla-like. Balvenie explicitly mentions that aroma and color can vary from bottling to bottling.

The chosen cask is indicated on the bottle label, and the bottles are numbered.

Of even character, rich and complex with deep, oaky vanilla. Honey notes overlaid with sweet fruits and subtle spices. Long-lasting sweetness in the finish. Tasting Notes from Balvenie

Tasting 2

Nose: Pleasant aromas of meadow honey, very intense. Caramel with sweet orange, vanilla oak, and chocolate unfold. In addition, pleasant leafy notes and maple sap. Palate: Immediately sweet and juicy with strong, creamy vanilla and honey. Cocoa/milk chocolate on the mid-palate, bedded on freshly sawn oak. Orange liqueur. With the addition of water, notes of condensed milk and canned fruit salad unfold. Finish: Medium length, very fruity – green apples and canned pears. Rating: First Fill Bourbon Cask. You know what you're getting, and it's definitely Balvenie. The increasing number of fans of this whisky should be delighted with this edition. blog.TheWhiskyExchange.com, Tim
