Product details
Aromas (The Nose)
- Primary: Sweet and decadent candied ginger intermingles with rich, honeyed toffee.
- Secondary: A noticeable undertone of green, freshly floor-malted barley and warm cereal notes, balanced out by soft vanilla pod and red orchard fruits from the sherry casks.
Palate (The Taste)
- Texture: Notably full-bodied, oily, and coating due to the higher bottling strength.
- Flavors: An immediate burst of warm biscuits and toasted oats followed by a deep, festive wave of raisins, sultanas, and dried figs.
- Mid-Palate: The signature honey sweetness of The Balvenie is cut perfectly by a warming spice layer of cinnamon and nutmeg.
Finish
- Length: Long, structural, and deeply warming.
- Notes: It leaves behind a lingering trail of oak spice, citrus peel, and a distinctively dry malt sweetness that invites another sip.
