The Balvenie 12 Year Old DoubleWood is a signature expression crafted by Malt Master David C. Stewart MBE using his pioneering ‘cask finishing’ technique. It is first matured in American oak bourbon barrels, gaining soft notes of vanilla and honey, before being moved to European oak sherry casks for a secondary maturation that adds layers of rich fruit and spice. This dual maturation process creates the complex and deep character unique to the DoubleWood. As one of the most beloved whiskies globally, it is the perfect choice for beginners and a superb daily dram.
