Double Maturation: Bourbon Casks & Sherry Casks
Balvenie 12 Years DoubleWood is a product of the Balvenie distillery and the result of the double maturation technique. It is initially matured in traditional American oak bourbon barrels, which impart smoothness and vanilla, then finished in European oak barrels that previously held sherry. This process adds rich fruit, spices, and depth.
Tasting Profile:
- Nose: Sweet vanilla, fruit, oak, raisins, and light spices
- Palate: Round and balanced, with flavors of nuts, honey, caramel, spices, and a subtle sherry character
- Finish: Long and smooth, with notes of wood, fruit, and a sweet spicy finish
Balvenie 12y DoubleWood is an example of the complexity offered by double maturation, creating a balanced and refined single malt.
