Balvenie Doublewood 12 Year Old is a single malt Scotch whisky that is matured for 12 years and finished in two types of oak casks, first in American oak casks for a creamy and vanilla flavour, then in European oak casks for a rich and spicy flavour. This creates a well-balanced flavour profile with notes of honey, vanilla, and spice.
Food pairings:
- Roasted meats (e.g. duck, pork)
- Apple pie
- Roasted vegetables
- Mild cheese (e.g. cheddar)
Note: The well-balanced flavour profile of this whisky makes it a good match for a variety of dishes, from sweet and fruity to rich and savoury. The sweetness complements sweet and savoury flavours in food, while the spices complement spicy and rich flavors.
