The Balvenie DoubleWood 12 is a single malt in a 70cl bottle, launched in 1993. It uses the wood finishing process that Malt Master David Stewart designed in 1982.
Whisky that has spent at least 12 years in American oak ex-bourbon barrels and hogsheads is moved to Spanish oak ex-Oloroso sherry casks for a further nine months. It then rests for three to four months in large oak tuns, so the casks can marry.
The nose is sweet fruit and Oloroso sherry with honey and vanilla. The palate is smooth and mellow, with nutty sweetness, cinnamon spice and a layer of sherry, and the finish is long and warming.
