Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep amber with coppery glow and mahogany hues.
Nose
Opulent sherry nose with dark plum, fig and raisin, balanced by honeyed barley sweetness and toasted oak. Vanilla and toffee mingle with spice as the malt breathes, while subtle leather and dried fruit notes lend a graceful, aged richness.
Palate
Velvet and full, this Balvenie layers honeyed sweetness with dark fig and raisin, framed by almond and toffee. Sherry-tinged oak adds depth, while a waxy barley richness underpins the palate. Nutmeg and cinnamon drift in, yielding a long, polished finish of orange zest and cocoa.
Finish
Long, refined finish with warm sherry sweetness and velvety oak. Raisin and orange zest notes emerge slowly, folding into gentle spice and silky tannins, leaving a lasting, honeyed glow.
