Balvenie New Oak First Bottling Single Malt Scotch Whisky 17 Year Old

Colour

Golden amber with a warm honey glow.

Nose

Vanilla-rich and creamy from the new oak, with gentle toffee and honey glaze. Fresh orchard fruit (apple and pear) brighten against a background of warm spice, light citrus zest, and polished oak. Subtle almond and a hint of waxy texture complete a refined, inviting aroma.

Palate

Silky and richly creamy, Balvenie New Oak 17 delivers vanilla, honey and orchard fruit with a gentle spice of clove and nutmeg. Subtle new-oak structure lends a touch of toasted almond, expanding into a long, warm finish.

Finish

Long, creamy and warmly spiced, the finish pours vanilla, honey and new oak, with silky tropical notes and a touch of toffee. The oak lingers, revealing gentle spice and orchard fruit, leaving a refined, softly woody sweetness that fades to a tempered warmth.
