The Balvenie 12 Year Old Single Barrel Single Malt Scotch Whisky

This Single Barrel expression from The Balvenie has been aged in 12 years in first fill Bourbon cask of a single distillation. The Balvenie Malt Master hand selects only those casks characterized by sweetness and subtle vanilla oakiness to be bottled as The Balvenie Single Barrel. Each bottling forms a limited edition of no more than 300 hand-numbered bottles drawn from a single cask. No two casks-even of the same type and filled with spirit from the same distillation-will produce an identical single malt so each bottling is unique and unrepeatable. The Balvenie Single Barrel 12 Year Old is bottled at the higher strength of 47.8% ABV. Tasting Notes: Nose: Honey notes are overlaid with sweet fruits and subtle spices. Taste: Rich and complex with a deep vanilla oakiness. Finish: Lingeringly sweet.
