The Balvenie Doublewood 17 YO Single Malt Speyside Scotch Whisky

Gold 2013

Tasting Note

" Five years more in the oak makes tremendous difference in the complexity and mellowness of this malt. Nose is packed with mix of banoffee pie, coffee grounds, ripe stone fruit, more toffee and ripe banana and chocolate. A range of dried fruits follow including raisins, sultana and apricot. All repeat in the mouth where honey and vanilla make important contribution with apple and cinnamon also there. Long, mellow and very satisfying finish. "
