Released in 2013, Balvenie's Single Barrel First Fill was matured in first-fill bourbon casks for at least 12 years before bottling. These are limited edition bottlings, with each bottle being one of no more than 300 drawn from a single cask. Each is also hand-numbered and labelled with the cask reference number. A deliciously creamy, vanilla-rich whisky from Balvenie.
Toasted, sweet nose with all kinds of charred oak and spice. Hints of maple syrup and allspice, a little vanilla and sweet coffee.
A complex, thick palate with allspice and toffee apples. Cooked fruit and baking spices, hints of sponge cake and creamy caramel.
Long finish with lingering sweetness and spice.
An intense whisky with lots of influence from the cask. Great value for money too.

My god, some of the pretentious rubbish by people below. It's a fantastic whisky, just try it if you haven't already.
Ba-na-na .. .. Love it. Got 3 left.
Lovely stuff. Plenty of vanillin from the cask along with coconut, toasted notes and gentle oak. Bags of distillery character giving a rich mouth feel, floral notes and gentle fruit. Excellent balance and great value.
Well balanced, modest Oak flavor up front with obvious vanilla, gives way to fruit and finishes with very obvious honey. I say obvious because it’s so easy to put your finger on, but to be clear I’m not saying it’s overpowering. This is a well balanced whiskey. If you haven’t had it, get some.
so delicious ! I want to buy more but it is sold out
