The Balvenie Single Barrel 15 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky - 2010 bottling (750ml)
The Balvenie’s 15-year-old Single Barrel Oak Cask has been matured exclusively in a single Traditional Oak Cask for at least 15 years. No more than 350 hand-numbered bottles are drawn from each Traditional Oak Cask, and each bottle carries the number of the cask in which it was matured.
Color - Lovely color – Deep, rich mahogany with a lovely string of pearls that formed when poured from that welcomed ABV.
Nose - The aromas are already filling the room with rich spices and sweet fruity notes – Cinnamon, nutmeg, red tea, butter pecan, all sorts of mixed dried fruit – apple, raisin, fig, cranberry, prune – toffee, baked almonds now, dark chocolate and dry, seasoned oak. After a bit of time it’s like fruit cake and fudge. Delicious. This is another one of those whiskies that you can really get lost in.
Palate - It comes in with this thick, rich and coating, sweet and fruity approach – apple, plum, raisin, cherry and even a bit of apricot now – with wonderful spices that begin to show themselves around mid-palate – clove, cinnamon, nutmeg – then it all balances together quite nicely and dances around the tongue before making its way into a nice long finish. There’s also a bit of that nuttiness and chocolate around mid-palate back as well. Chocolate covered cherries almost.
Finish - Long, slightly drying and full of all those wonderful fruit and spice characteristics.
