Balvenie 12YO Double Wood Gift Pack

Balvenie lies in the Convals in Dufftown. The distillery was built by William Grant just below Glenfiddich in 1892, sharing its water source, the Robbie Dhu springs, with its illustrious neighbor. Despite also having the same distiller, Balvenie is hugely different in character. It is one of the few Scotch distilleries to boast in-house floor maltings, utilising locally hand-cut peat. Over the last few years, Balvenie has become the ninth bestselling single malt and demand is growing.

Spent at least 12 years in traditional whisky casks, American Oak ex-bourbon barrels and hogsheads, and moves it to Spanish oak ex-Oloroso sherry casks for an additional nine months. The whisky is then transferred to large oak vessels called “tuns” for 3-4 months to allow the whiskies from individual casks to “marry”.

Sweet fruit and Oloroso sherry notes layered with honey and vanilla. On the palate smooth and mellow with beautifully combined flavors – nutty sweetness, cinnamon spiciness and a delicately proportioned layer of sherry. The finish is long and worming.

The Balvenie 12 Year Old Double Wood Gift Set presents an exquisite combination of the finest whisky and stylish accessories.
