The Balvenie Aged 25 Years DoubleWood Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml)

The Balvenie Aged 25 Years DoubleWood Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml)

Volume: 700ml           ABV: 43%           Age: 25 Years Old           Country: Scotland

2018 marks the 25th anniversary of The Balvenie DoubleWood, and so to celebrate we are looking back at its journey.

After the original Balvenie 12 Years DoubleWood (supposedly the first ‘finished’ whisky ever, back in 1983) and the more recent 17 Years DoubleWood, there’s now a Balvenie 25 Years DoubleWood as well, bottled at 43%.

This is a limited edition that marks the 25th anniversary of the DoubleWood concept: a first maturation in American oak bourbon casks and a second period in European oak sherry casks.

Tasting Notes

We were lucky enough to have a dram of this fine single malt whisky at a recent Balvenie event but who was taking notes. I can only share what my palate thought, simply de vine.
