Balvenie 12yr Double Wood 750ml

The finish from the sherry cask is incredibly smooth, with a honeyed sweetness that lingers just long enough without being cloying. I've been reaching for this bottle more often than my usual go-to, and it hasn't disappointed yet.

The vanilla spiciness from the whiskey cask comes through right on the nose, but the honeyed fruit from the sherry finish is what keeps me coming back. Poured a glass after work and it's smooth from the first sip to the last.

The sherry cask influence really comes through on the finish—sweet honey and dried fruit linger long after each sip, while the vanilla from the whiskey casks stays up front. It’s smooth enough to drink neat, but the layers keep it interesting from first pour to last drop.
