Balvenie 12 Year Old Stories Sweet Toast of American Oak - 43% 70cl

Comprising three single malts, The Balvenie Stories range includes 12 Year Old The Sweet Toast of American Oak, 14 Year Old The Week of Peat and 26 Year Old A Day of Dark Barley.

The Balvenie The Sweet Toast Of American Oak is story no. 1 in The Balvenie Story Series. Inspired to produce an even fruitier, sweeter Balvenie, Apprentice Malt Master Kelsey Mckenchie had the bright idea to import Virgin Oak Barrels from Kentucky

Nose: Lusciously malty with some sweet fudge, followed by a citrus hint with oak vanilla aromas as layers of spicy oak notes of ginger and cinnamon round the nose off. 

Palate: Candied orange and lemon peel with rich vanilla toffee and butterscotch, layers of blossom honey provide a sweet hint with some melted brown sugar and oak spices lingering on the finish.

Finish: Rich and malty with gentle waves of oak vanilla and subtle spices.
