Product Description
Balvenie has history when it comes to double maturation, having brought the practice of cask finishing to prominence the 1980s. So, it's perhaps no surprise that this 14-year-old single malt became an instant classic. After an initial maturation in ex-bourbon barrels it was finished in Caribbean rum casks, which imparted a rich creaminess to the whisky's hallmark honeyed character. There are aromas of candied lemon, toffee and ripe bananas on the nose, complemented by notes of fresh pineapple and salted caramel, underpinned by stewed orchard fruits. This is a wonderfully complex-yet gentle dram.

Very nice. Brilliant taste>
Absolutely my favorite scotch! Perfect!
Just bought this yesterday and was amazed by its complexity. Right out of the gate it was a burst of that famous Balvenie scotch with a flavorful hit of toasty rum, and a creamy finish with candy like taste..kinda. I love it, it’s a keeper for sure.
This speyside needs to have its own candle fragrance. My favorite scotch ever in terms of the nose. Wonderful notes of toffee and banana wrapped in vanilla and oak. Just splendid. Taste is very good as well, with a good peppery finish capped with more vanilla. Excellent whisky
Yes excellent
