365.00

Available : outofstock

This 12 year old Balvenie was released in 2008 and was launched to replace the 10 year old Founders Reserve. This bottling was aged in first fill bourbon barrels and refill casks and sherry butts. This is from the first batch released!

The Signature is a small batch series released to celebrate Master Distiller, Dave Stewart’s 45th year in the whisky industry.

This is the first batch of the Signature, which David Stewart crafted to mark his 45th year in the whisky industry. Matured in the three most traditional cask types: first fill bourbon, refill bourbon and sherry.

When it was launched in 2007, this was intended as a replacement for the Founder’s Reserve, which was discontinued two years later. The series only spanned five batches however, the last of these appearing in 2013.

Tasting Note

A little spiced rum opens up the nose with gorgeous hints of date and walnut cake, a little honeyed oiliness, a dusting of cocoa and lush crystallized ginger.

The mouth feel is delicately vinous, in true Balvenie style, the palate holds winter spice and salty butter pastry with a sweet vanilla and melted cookie dough ice-cream.

The finish is tight and swift, the bourbon oak notes fading out with added toasty vanilla.
