Review by The Balvenie

« This review is also available in Dutch »
Nose

A perfume of fruity and ripe raisin notes, backed by a nutty dryness.

Palate

Refined with remarkable character, it is creamy and silky with fruit, honey and spice notes.

Finish

Long, gentle, nutty.

Note

To create The Balvenie PortWood Aged 21 Years, a marriage of rare Balvenie is transferred to port casks, or pipes, which have held fine port wines. Here it is sampled regularly by The Balvenie Malt Master to ensure that just the right amount of character is imparted by the port casks, enhancing and developing the single malt whilst preserving its original characteristics.
