Balvenie 16 Year Old French Oak
A fascinating release from Speyside's superb Balvenie Distillery. This expression was initially aged in American oak casks, before being transferred over to casks that previously held Pineau from France. This has introduced a generous helping of honey-glazed fruit and a subtle leafy hint to this 16 year old single malt's flavour profile.
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Gingerbread and sponge cake, with a splash of grapefruit freshness.
Palate
Almond pastries, honeyed apricot, geranium, buttery vanilla, and a little hint of toasted cedar.
Finish
More citrus and honey, now with a hint of honeydew melon in the mix.
