Balvenie 'The Sweet Toast of American Oak' 12 Year Old
The story being spectacular things that can happen when ancient techniques meet fresh new innovative ideas. "Some would call us 'aff our heads', but I suppose you've got to try something really different now and again," explained Mashman Brian Webster. On the nose this bottling gives lusciously malty notes with some sweet fudge, followed by citrus and oak vanilla aromas with layers of spicy oak notes of ginger and cinnamon. On the palate it is candied orange and lemon peel, vanilla toffee and butterscotch, layers and layers of blossom honey with some melted brown sugar and oak spices at the end. The finish is rich and full of malty notes with gentle waves of oak vanilla and subtle spice.
Tomintoul 12 Year Old Oloroso Sherry Cask
The Oloroso sherry cask Tomintoul is very different to the 10 year old, with more rounded creamy influence from the sherry cask coming through. Smooth, elegant with dried fruit notes and sweetness.
