Details

Estd 1892. Doublewood matured in two distinct casks. Aged 12 years. The Balvenie doublewood acquired its complex yet rich and smooth taste from its maturation in two different types of oak cask. Whisky Oak: Many years of maturation in traditional whisky casks mellows the maturing spirit and imparts warming layers of vanilla spiciness. First cask. Sherry Oak: Further maturation in European oak sherry casks increases complexity, bringing fruity, honeyed depths to the resulting single malt. Second cask. The Balvenie malt master. Double Wood: The Traditional Crafts of malt whisky making still flourish at the Balvenie distillery. The Balvenie Distillery has been owned and managed by the same independent family company for five generations.
