Pickup currently not available
The Balvenie Doublewood, distilled at The Balvenie Distillery in Banffshire, Scotland, is a masterful expression of the distiller's art, matured for 17 years in two distinctive oak casks. This exquisite single malt initially rests in traditional whisky oak, imparting delicate vanilla notes, before a secondary maturation in European oak sherry casks deepens its complexity with rich, honeyed fruit. It's a testament to David Stewart's legacy, offering a wonderfully balanced and profoundly flavorful whisky experience.
