The Balvenie 17 Year Old Doublewood is a limited expression from the Dufftown Speyside distillery — the Doublewood concept at the 17-year age statement, presenting The Balvenie’s spirit after 17 years of traditional American oak ex-bourbon maturation followed by a finishing period in first-fill European oak Oloroso sherry casks, producing the most developed version of the Doublewood approach.
The Doublewood philosophy — American oak bourbon maturation followed by sherry cask finishing — is applied at 17 years for more developed and complex character than the standard 12 Year Doublewood. Browse all Scotch whisky at Wooden Cork.
