The Balvenie DoubleWood is a 12 year old single malt which gains its distinctive character from being matured in two wood types. Over the period of maturation it is transferred from a traditional oak whisky cask to a first fill European oak sherry cask. Each stage lends different qualities to the resulting single malt ~ the traditional casks soften and add character, whilst the sherry wood brings depth and fullness of flavor.
NOSE - Sweet fruit and Oloroso sherry notes, layered with honey and vanilla.
TASTE - Smooth and mellow with beautifully combined flavours ~ nutty sweetness, cinnamon spiciness and a delicately proportioned layer of sherry.
FINISH - Long and Warming

Although Speyside lies within the Scottish Highlands, it is considered its own whisky producing region due to the concentration of distilleries and similarities in style. However within Speyside there can still be a significant differences. There are those on the lighter side, such as Glenlivet and Singleton of Glendullan and those richer, rounder Scotches from Macallan and Aberlour.
Single malts, made by a single distillery and from 100% malted barley, comprise the majority of our selection. However you will also find a number of popular blended Scotches as well as some very special one-off, single barrel, single malts from independent bottlers.
